Dato’ Sharifah Fatimah Zubir often creates artworks that resonate with her thoughts and emotions at the time, and her works result in something abstract and subjective to the viewer. This piece, governed by red, perhaps is a metaphor for passion. Red is known for being the colour of force, spirit as it pieces together the rest of the articles in this frame, bits and pieces of other colours such as blue and green, each signifying a different kind of emotion or thought. In the end, despite the many thoughts and emotions, passion is what strings them together into a perfect composition.
