Khairul Izham draws on memory and the passage of time as central themes in his practice. Through intricate layering and intentional masking, he evokes a sense of fragmented recollection, leaving behind visual traces that suggest both presence and absence. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam. His work has been featured in various exhibitions, including the Malaysian Emerging Artist Award (2011), Deceitful Truths (2011), and Dischromatic (2010). Currently based in Kuala Lumpur, Khairul is known for creating moody, enigmatic compositions. His expressive brushwork forms shadowy silhouettes, rendered with a raw intensity that captures fine details, textures, and subtle contours. This particular work continues his exploration of atmosphere and ambiguity, reflecting the quiet chaos and layered depth that define his artistic language.
