Indonesian artist Muhammad Fatchurofi’s work creates quite an impression with its contrasting colours and distinct visuals. While his compositions instil a sense of energy through his use of bold colour palettes and frenetic, coarse textures, his subjects often evoke serenity, harmony, and a quiet stillness. This complementary nature potently emerges from Fatchurofi’s practice in not only a formal sense but also an expressive sense, as his familiar motifs elicit an air of mindfulness. As a result, a strong sense of balance continues to evolve in the Semarang-based artist’s newer works.
Lately, Fatchurofi has been venturing into the world of acrylic and canvas, translating his skills in digital illustration into a more tactile practice. After accomplishing his first solo exhibition last year, the artist is currently working on more paintings in the hopes of discovering new artistic directions and more exhibitions.
