Abu Jalal Sarimon, a third-generation Singaporean artist, paints to explore the world's richness and beauty. He finds painting therapeutic and meditative, akin to a spiritual journey. As the Founder of AIAS and F&L, Vice President of MASS, and a Senior Member of APAD, he actively organizes and participates in art events globally. Renowned for his Social Commentary art and the Big Nose Series, Abu Jalal's bold works challenge viewers to uncover hidden meanings, reflecting his deep concern for society and humanity.
"The artwork, Saat Awan Berbicara, draws inspiration from the Surah "auzubillah minashaitan nirajeem" ("I seek refuge in Allah from the outcast Shaitan") and "bismillahir rahmanir rahim" ("In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful"). The entire composition symbolizes the beauty of MEKAR - blossoming, a period filled with positivity and life's blissfulness. The composition captures a moment where looking up at the clouds brings smiles and blessings, reflecting the graciousness of the Creator."
