Having worked on numerous large-scale pieces as a result of undertaking commissions to paint backdrops for theatre productions, Hamir Soib\u2019s own paintings are mostly executed on \u2018larger than life\u2019 canvases. As a Malaysian artist, living and working in Kuala Lumpur, in the 21st century, his monolithic works are representative of the times we live in, and this body of works are a witty, sometimes cynical look at what the country and its people have become.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>Hamir Soib\u2019s solo exhibition, Imbasan, features at Wei-Ling Gallery,8 Jalan Scott ,Brickfields , Kuala Lumpur 50470, Malaysia from 17th July-10th August 2007.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em> For more details please visit www.weiling-gallery.com or call 03-22601106\/7.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031{\nheight:35px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thestar.com.my\/story\/?file=%2F2007%2F8%2F2%2Fcentral%2F20070801185831\"><strong>An artist with a mission by Lim Chia Ying<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CuRRENT\u00a0|\u00a0PAST works\u00a0|\u00a0press release Imbasan Hamir Soib In July 2007, Wei-Ling Gallery presents \"Imbasan\", solo exhibition of paintings by the enigmatic Malaysian artist Hamir Soib.
