Dato’ Tajuddin’s distinctive style has lured many art enthusiasts into his realm of innovative and complex artistry. To Tajuddin, art is about making a visual connection with the eyes of its beholder. Abstract art is never constant in their message, meaning different things for different individuals. As in these simple paper works comprising basic lines and shape tinted in gallant, outstanding colours of greens and blues, Tajuddin Ismail successfully captures the eyes and mind of the viewer. The two pieces may seem simple, but they have that ability to beckon the viewer to dissect the true meaning behind each work. These pieces requires that the audience must take a longer look, to reflect on the artist’s creations.
