Unmask.Ed – the education of revealing multifacetedness, is a very personal look at how Syahidah sees the world and its people. In each
piece, she is reenvisioning the human face and figure and showing us a new way of seeing people. With each piece, we learn a new way of
perceiving.
Statement from the Artist :
“The line is the foundation of my style of Art. I believe that focusing on the lines, will give a truer, clearer understanding of the work, than if they were cluttered with too many other visual means of expression. My lines should be understood as seeking the fundamental truths of my subjects. I seek to reveal the essential lines of my chosen subjects, presenting them so that their core can best be understood. With each drawing I am telling you something special about the nature of the person drawn. In some drawings, I use symbolism to further speak of their inner truths. So, if my work were to be summed
up in two words it would: line and symbol.”
