Born in 1970, Yusof Majid’s creative work was predominantly inspired by the 1980s. The artist attended the Chelsea School of Art, England from 1988 to 1993. Yusof sees his paintings as a naive surrealist extension of his inner self, emptiness and euphoria in landscapes of memory and dreamscapes.

Art comes natural to Yusof and its no surprise that his artistic journey began with his childhood. In his quest of true humanity, he is constantly telling stories with his brushes, putting colourful images onto the canvas and celebrating the sheer magic of happiness.
