Original artwork description:

Saujana, oil on canvas, 80 x 80 x 2 cm
"Saujana" is a Malay word often used to describe a peaceful and idyllic place, particularly in the context of natural landscapes. The term goes beyond a mere description of physical surroundings and encompasses a feeling of calmness, comfort, and a connection to nature. In essence, "Saujana" is a term that resonates with the universal human desire to find a haven of calmness and connection amidst the challenges of life.
Painted in rich and vibrant oil paint, “Saujana” draws on a naive beauty reminiscent of the paintings of Henri Matisse and with an artistic style inspired by David Hockney. A bold colour palette of deep purple and pink with gold highlights is brought to life with defined sharp shapes to suggest a peaceful, floral landscape. The painting brings joy and calm into a room, it's simple design evoking childhood memories. “Saujana” is ready to hang.
