2012
everyday i bid farewell
to a star
...

joint effort with Hadiah Hamzah

Sungai Sarawak penghubung masyarakat
sungai dikayuh menjamu kuih lapis
...

the old lady cries
the White Nights she met
her late husband
...

the mountains kiss high heaven
the waves clasp
one another
...

Bali Arts Festival
gods and humans
fuse in spirit
...

sadguru sri sharavana baba
a smile, a smile, intimately
bringing blessings
...

you dont need a human figure
to be able to think
you dont need a human body
to be able to talk
...

The Card Players
the artist's brush with
the colours of fame
...

the sea tonight
sweeping to us
the stars
...
