In On The Coast, Rafiee Ghani uses a dynamic palette of red, green, and mauve to reconstruct the canvas as an expressive field of emotion and movement. The oil on canvas work, painted in 1996, balances spontaneity with structure, where gestural brushwork and tonal contrast create a sense of depth and rhythm. This painting reveals the artist’s continued pursuit of capturing the spirit of place through colour and abstraction.
