Being the \u2018layering\u2019 maestro that he has become known for in his cavernous, intense abstract canveses, Hamidi has once again concentrated on the layering effect of his materials but this time with the use of different tools to push and explore the limits of his material and to above-all create luminosity on his painted surface.It is this intense desire to \u2018involve\u2019 the viewer on his canvas, that has driven each of these 20 new works into the masterpieces that they have become, resplendent in the glory of their observers.<\/p>\n<p>For Hamidi Hadi, the Timang-Timang series may have allowed him some form of closure in their creation, however the journey resumes as he continues to see the endless possibilities that his materials afford him.<\/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 title=\"Read catalogue essay by Amanda Katherine Rath\" href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/portfolio-item\/read-catalogue-essay-by-amanda-katherine-rath\/\"><strong>Read catalogue essay by Amanda Katherine Rath<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thestar.com.my\/Story\/?file=%2F2009%2F2%2F17%2Fcentral%2F3264583\"><strong>Artist portrays moods in abstract form by Priya Menon<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Reflections of his life by Sayfiq Razali\" href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/portfolio-item\/reflections-of-his-life-by-sayfiq-razali\/\"><strong>Reflections of his life by Sayfiq Razali<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CuRRENT\u00a0|\u00a0PAST works\u00a0|\u00a0press release Timang Timang Hamidi Hadi Timang-Timang, Hamidi Hadi\u2019s third solo exhibition describes this Malaysian artist\u2019s new body of work, as it has allowed him to arrive at a point of resolution and calm in his oeuvre of works.After many months of searching and experimenting with his materials, Polytheurine, resin and enamel gloss paint [...]","protected":false},"featured_media":7012,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"portfolio_entries":[20],"class_list":["post-7031","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_entries-exhibitions"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/7031","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7031"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/7031\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7034,"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/7031\/revisions\/7034"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7031"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7031"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_entries","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_entries?post=7031"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
