A SOLO ART EXHIBITION “Refleksi”by Hamdan Shaarani at PELITA HATI Gallery of Art

Hamdan Shaarani is a realist painter. He was born in Teluk Intan, Perak. He now resides in a village of Seri Kantan, Tronoh, Perak. He has been painting since the 90’s and to date has contributed more than 15 years of his expertise as a lecturer at Universiti Teknologi MARA in Perak.
He chose nature as his subject of paintings. However, he paints with a “bird’s eye” view of his main concept of work-that is reflection, thus making it rather unique and sometime abstract in the eye of the viewers.
Reflection has become an integral and important composition in Hamdan’s work. He is intrigue and fascinated with the soft flowing movement of water, slowly pushing and moving dried leaves and debris from one place to another.  This becomes something of a metaphor to him in relation to human beings-drifting and sometime moving endlessly & aimlessly in our everyday lives.  As for the dried leaves and debris-to Hamdan, as he sees it, this is a reminder for all of us living on this planet that one day we will surely succumb to the law of nature, we will no doubt become weak, frail, dwindle and at the end of the day-death.  A reminder that death is something that is sure and that all living things must face and endure. Looking closely at Hamdan’s work, it is like looking into a big mirror. The mirror reflecting the world we live in-a beautiful and wonderful place-reflecting god’s greatest creation-nature itself.
