Jai’s work has a distinctive quality and is known to evolve around bold, vibrant colours and interspersed with contemporary objects as depicted in this art work. Jai’s creations have been exhibited in private and public art spaces around the country as well as abroad. He has won awards as an artist while some of his works are in permanent collections in corporations and public art galleries like the Balai Seni Lukis Negara and PETRONAS Gallery. He returned to New York in the spring of 2011 for his first US solo exhibition in over ten years, comprising a new body of mixed media works on canvas and paper. Jai’s exhibition gave American audiences a rare opportunity for an in-depth viewing of the work of one of Malaysia’s leading contemporary artists.
