Art Details

Artist Maamor Jantan
b. Kedah, 1961
Year of Artwork 2023
Description Known for his distinctive style of watercolour painting that often features natural elements, including the symbolic and playful depiction of dragonflies. In this painting, vibrant colours and dynamic forms create a sense of movement. The dragonfly gracefully flying blending with swirling lines and shapes that evoke a dreamy, almost surreal environment. The floral elements contribute to the nature-inspired theme, reflecting Maamor's typical fascination with both nature and traditional motifs.

Maamor Jantan, nicknamed "Mr. Cakcibor" (The Dragonfly Man) for his signature motif, rose to prominence in Malaysian art circles despite starting his artistic journey later in life. Apprenticed under the renowned Khalil Ibrahim in 1984, Jantan developed a distinct style known for its delicate transparency and range of mauve hues. After years of honing his craft alongside friends and his mentor, Jantan's first solo exhibition, "Figment of Imagination", took place in 2014, showcasing his dedication to capturing scenes of Malay life and landscapes. Beyond visual arts, Jantan is also a musician leading a traditional keroncong orchestra, further demonstrating his deep connection to Malaysian culture.
