Description:
For the artist, art is dream of fantasy and snapshots of reality and moments of exhilaration. As an artist, he has struggled to speak through his art, and realised later as he was working with his own chosen theme, feelings and emotions, that art comes to him as a form of expression and a form of exploration. Visual art gives him a medium through which to voice his emotions, my fears, wildest wishes and his inspiration.

His work relates to his life, emotions and thoughts. "In desperate time" depicts when he struggles to manage his studies and art career at the same time.
