Halaman is the artist’s personal reflection to bring back lost memories. Largely unrelated, each scene is a random snapshot of his kampung hangout. At first glance, Halaman seems rushed and chaotic however if scrutinised deeply each panel is composed with drawings of ambiguous portraits. From his earlier strong signature strokes of realist figures set against a minimalist background to more complex harmonious blend of bright and bold solid forms, Halaman is Husin’s latest development where he revisits his well-known free hand lines and contours to amalgamate subtly into his paintings.
