Jungle Sculptor Artist & Land Art Artist
Participated in RAYS
2024
M. Sahzy, a talented Bornean artist residing in Kuching, Sarawak, draws inspiration from the lush jungle surroundings, crafting surreal sculptures from organic materials found within. Each artwork is a testament to his deep connection with nature, reflecting the intricate interplay between materials, environment, and his boundless imagination. Spending weeks or even months on each piece, Sahzy infuses his sculptures with personal narratives and experiences, creating a captivating visual journey for the viewer. In addition to natural elements, Sahzy seamlessly incorporates discarded man-made objects, further enriching the storytelling aspect of his creations. Through his sculptures, he invites viewers to contemplate themes of transformation, resilience, and the cyclical nature of existence, all while shedding light on his profound fascination with discarded objects and the spaces they inhabit.
