Known as one of the most profound artists in Malaysia, Sabri Idrus is born in Kedah in the year 1971. His works are known to be defined through his expression from experimentation of the media. Sabri is a professional graphic designer where he is very actively involved with the production of his art work. Sabri obtained his qualifications in the fine arts with UiTM (Universiti Teknologi Mara) in 1998 where he then put up his first solo show a year after graduation. One could identify that Sabri’s works are very commonly seen in the media which is the industry which he has been working in.
His works are known to encircle around working with surface and spatial stacking with organic fluid and temporality forms which is very much his forte and trademark. His works are also known to be highly intellectual where he successfully integrates symbolism with philosophy which are never literal, offering viewers and appreciators the opportunity to learn more about how his messages are conveyed. His mastery of lines puts him among the best in the art scene and one who is distinguishable through his art work and signature. Breathtaking artwork is what Sabri is known for and he rarely disappoints.
