This woodcut on canvas work, formerly exhibited and sold in Galeri Tangsi in 2008 is immensely captivating and demands for rightful attention from its viewers. Stretching to 230 cm, ‘Sakti. Dragon II, 2006’ sees a mighty dragon at its centre with attention paid to its details. From the scales along its body to its wrathful eyes and sharp fangs, Mohd Raduan Man meticulously depicts this fantastical creature on canvas. Across the piece, what can be assumed as pearls embellish the woodcut work, an ode to the legend of the dragon and pearl.
