KUALA LUMPUR, May 3 — The paintbrush has always proven to be mightier than the sword for Malaysian artist Mulaika Nordin.
“I knew it wasn’t just me because it happened to a few of my friends too. I got back from school one day and I was like ‘I’ve had enough of this and I’m gonna make this painting.’ The razor-sharp commentary in that work has opened up new doors for Mulaika, who hopes to transition from making more personal paintings to grappling with louder statement pieces.
The show covers several periods in the artist’s life, including Mulaika’s struggles to make friends in kindergarten. With more than 56 paintings in total, her debut solo exhibition chronicles the last three years of her journey as a painter and the evolution of her art style.“When I look at everything now, there’s so many different styles and types of paintings.Mulaika lists abstract expressionist Mark Rothko as one of her favourite artists. — Picture by Firdaus Latif
