Currently taking her Master\u2019s degree in painting at the Royal College of Art, most of the scenes depicted are of her life in London for the past 5 years. Thus, the questions of displacement, diaspora, and representation of her Asian identity are often addressed. In fact, the title of the series itself, \u2018<em>Always Greener<\/em>\u2019 (2021) draws from the famous saying that \u201cthe grass is always greener on the other side\u201d, referring to her own migration to a foreign land. Dialoguing with her large-scale paintings are tiny canvas paintings which are stretched onto found objects such as a Panadol packaging, breaking the myth of what a painting should be. Alya\u2019s attempt in expressing personal experiences and the notion of secrecy also gives birth to a set of small and intimate pencil drawings on paper. For the first time, we see Alya\u2019s personage occupying the physical space of the audience in the form of a soft sculpture. With features that reflect the stereotypical appearance of an Asian woman, her body appears deconstructed and displaced.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Click to view <a href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Alya-Hatta-CV.pdf\">CV<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div class='flex_column av-4qgj6fb-6517feaf5022d262ff3bd822e44ac105 av_one_third  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_third  flex_column_div column-top-margin'   ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4f37o13-c418e8b11b802a1eb358e802d9c7cbd3\">\n.avia-image-container.av-4f37o13-c418e8b11b802a1eb358e802d9c7cbd3 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-4f37o13-c418e8b11b802a1eb358e802d9c7cbd3 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-8  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-18571 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-18571 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-2020.-Photo-by-Hakim-Ahmad1-180x180.png\" alt='' title='Anwar Suhaimi'  height=\"180\" width=\"180\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-2020.-Photo-by-Hakim-Ahmad1-180x180.png 180w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-2020.-Photo-by-Hakim-Ahmad1-80x80.png 80w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-2020.-Photo-by-Hakim-Ahmad1-36x36.png 36w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-2020.-Photo-by-Hakim-Ahmad1-120x120.png 120w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-2020.-Photo-by-Hakim-Ahmad1-450x450.png 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '  style='font-size:14px; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'open sans thin'; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 25px; letter-spacing: 1px;\">Anwar Suhaimi (B.1987)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anwar Suhaimi presents a series of monochromatic drawings executed by his self-built drawing robot, as the result of an experiment using physical computing technology, which he programmed to read instructions. This concept strongly echoes Anwar&#8217;s overall practice which, with his background in Fine Arts and Technology, has always seen him manoeuvre between both worlds. Anwar digitally sketched the shape of a water tank, followed by programming his device to draw the exact same forms. The duality between what is machine-programmed and organic is yet again present through the imperfections of the lines despite it being executed using technology. \u2018<em>The Water Tanks<\/em>\u2019 (2021) series could be considered as a continuation of his past installation work Delan (Ripplings) (2019), which received the Jury Award in Bakat Muda Sezaman 2019. This time around, he challenges our manner of looking at a public utilitarian object. Drawing the water tank\u2019s different facades and layers, Anwar suggests the idea of it being an echo chamber; although a collective facility, one could only speculate what lies inside. Accompanying the drawings is a one-channel video unveiling the structure of the tank, realised using 3D modelling.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Click to view <a href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Anwar-Suhaimi-CV.pdf\">CV<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div class='flex_column av-3i9c32f-f8333e80df6c9ad9bc7d817b86b44e22 av_one_third  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_fourth  flex_column_div column-top-margin'   ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2unbip3-7c6d8883e9770f911bbebf29ee745850\">\n.avia-image-container.av-2unbip3-7c6d8883e9770f911bbebf29ee745850 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-2unbip3-7c6d8883e9770f911bbebf29ee745850 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-11  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-18568 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-18568 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-12-at-14.35.26-180x180.jpeg\" alt='' title='Shika'  height=\"180\" width=\"180\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-12-at-14.35.26-180x180.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-12-at-14.35.26-80x80.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-12-at-14.35.26-36x36.jpeg 36w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-12-at-14.35.26-120x120.jpeg 120w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2021-10-12-at-14.35.26-450x450.jpeg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '  style='font-size:14px; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'open sans thin'; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 25px; letter-spacing: 1px;\">Shika (B.1976)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pixel art started to gain relevance in the 1970s with the emergence of computers and digital art. Shika\u2019s fascination towards this phenomenon as well as the rise of the internet culture inspired her to use it as a tool of activism, mainly addressing the issue of transphobia. What is even stronger is her attempt of combining both the digital and physical space, through the act of printing and pasting her pixel art onto canvas. QR codes are also embedded onto these collages, so as to bridge visitors to the virtual realm. Throughout the mentorship, Shika focused on the research of colours and expressions, which gave birth to her digital illustrations, shared daily on her Instagram page. During the pandemic, Shika has pushed forward her digital activism further by utilising social media as a window to connect to the world. As she comments, \u201c<em>This is the time when we all need to hang on to each other.<\/em>\u201d The use of pastel colours is influenced by the new wave culture and electronic music, and serves as an irony as she tackles recent events in the local political landscape of Malaysia. Shika\u2019s critical work has been shown internationally, including at the Singapore Biennale and the Guangdong Times Museum.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Click to view <a href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Shika-CV.pdf\">CV<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div class='flex_column av-2678k9z-d4a36275c3c73b4daa7908fd57a9bf78 av_one_fourth  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_two_third  first flex_column_div column-top-margin'   ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1ji34hz-2404b070da76a9c170351fe32d6d0d82\">\n.avia-image-container.av-1ji34hz-2404b070da76a9c170351fe32d6d0d82 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-1ji34hz-2404b070da76a9c170351fe32d6d0d82 av-styling- avia-align-left  avia-builder-el-14  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-18649 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-18649 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC017481-300x275.jpg\" alt='' title='Anurendra Jegadeva'  height=\"275\" width=\"300\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC017481-300x275.jpg 300w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC017481-1030x944.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC017481-1500x1376.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC017481-705x646.jpg 705w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSC017481-450x412.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class='flex_column av-hgecn-1a22d1c2b78c9d89882b5fdcf9dd0167 av_two_third  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_one_fourth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div column-top-margin'   ><section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '  style='font-size:14px; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'open sans thin'; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 25px; letter-spacing: 1px;\">Mentor: Anurendra Jegadeva (B.1965)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anurendra Jegadeva is regarded as one of Malaysia\u2019s leading contemporary artists for his poetic yet provocative socio-political works. A narrative artist and a painter of stories, he believes in the enduring power of the painted image, and has worked consistently to forge an effective approach to contemporary and historical themes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Based in both Malaysia and Australia, his works stem from a personal experience of, and response to his subject \u2013 be it the post-colonial realities of multi-cultural Malaysia, Asian immigrant life in Australia, or the war in Iraq on his TV screen, Anurendra Jegadeva deftly weaves an autobiographical layer into the complex realities he seeks to capture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Through a diversified body of work, he examines the ironies in contemporary life and probes the issue of cultural integration <em>vis-a\u0300-vis<\/em> the fusion of modern and traditional values. In the process, Anurendra Jegadeva employs a panoply of narrative tools &#8211; recurring motifs, colour symbolism, the framing devices of temple carvers and stained-glass makers, as well as comic book artists &#8211; the vocabulary of a multifarious existence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">His 2017 solo exhibition <em>\u2018On the Way to The Airport \u2013 New Keepsakes\u2019 <\/em>was held at Wei-Ling Contemporary, and coincided with the publication of a monograph documenting his 30 year career. Inspired by his return to Australia, he draws attention to migration as part of current world issues.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">His latest exhibition, \u2018<em>SCREAM INSIDE YOUR HEART &#8211; New Paintings from Solitary Confinement\u2019 <\/em>(2020) is a series of paintings that revolves around the current worldwide pandemic and how he deals with it, both on a social and personal level. All the works presented in this show have an element of in-betweenness; to stay quiet or to voice out, to lockdown or not to lockdown, to pause or to carry on. These are the current dilemmas faced by every individual \u2014 an underlying feeling that haunts, as months go by living with the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anurendra Jegadeva was one of four Malaysian artists to represent Malaysia at the country\u2019s first ever National Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition &#8211; La Biennale di Venezia in 2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Click to view <a href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Anurendra-Jegadeva-revised-2021.pdf\">CV<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"works&nbsp;|&nbsp;press release&nbsp;| INSITU |&nbsp;CV&nbsp;| E-Booklet| NEWS &nbsp; Alya Hatta (B.1999) Alya Hatta\u2019s multicoloured paintings take us to moments that are personal to her.
