Fendy Zakri is a self-taught artist based in Kuala Lumpur and had his first solo exhibition in 2014, entitled “Seeing the Unseen”. Fendy challenges conventional perspectives with hidden images in his works, and he insists that every stroke of the brush is deliberate, every line is carefully composed. “I play with space, texture, colours, form, composition and balance … and then distort it to make my artwork look like abstract. The artist is settled in creating art that contains more self-searching and deep reflection, he believes that “the thought behind an artwork is more important than the skills in creating it”
