GALERI PETRONAS proudly presents MATAHATI – For Your Pleasure, an exhibition that showcases the largest number of selected works to date by MATAHATI, a leading contemporary Malaysian art collective. Comprising Ahmad Fuad Osman, Ahmad Shukri Mohamed, Bayu Utomo Radjikin, Hamir Soib @ Mohamed and Masnoor Ramli Mahmud, MATAHATI was formed in the late 1980s. Since then, the members of this collective have carved their names in the Malaysian art scene through their activities and practice, accomplished either individually or together. MATAHATI – For Your Pleasure tells the story of the artists' early development through to recent explorations in their practice, reflecting upon their insights and study of concerns regarding identity, representation, humanity, community, social responsibility and religion.
