In Desember Lewat Hujung, Jalaini Abu Hassan captures a fleeting moment of reflection through an expressive interplay of line, texture and layered media. The evocative title, translating roughly as “December Has Passed”, suggests the passage of time and the lingering traces of experiences left behind. Characteristic of Jalaini’s drawing-led practice, the work balances spontaneity with emotional depth, allowing marks and forms to emerge with an almost instinctive energy. Executed in 1999, it offers an intimate glimpse into the artist’s exploration of memory, time and the human condition.
