About the artwork

Rujiman's "Golden Bonds" is a vibrant testament to familial strength, depicted through the harmonious dance of nine koi fish. Against a resplendent gold background, each fish is brought to life with Rujiman's signature impasto technique, their sculpted forms adding a tangible depth to the painting. This circular arrangement, where the koi swim in perfect synchronicity, profoundly reflects the enduring strength of familial bonds. The radiant gold, symbolic of prosperity and warmth, further enhances the sense of blessings that flow from love and togetherness. The artwork transcends a simple visual, becoming a powerful emblem of unity and the precious, intertwined destinies of a 'blessed family', celebrating the deep connections that enrich our lives.

About the artist

Rujiman was born in 1975 and graduated from the School of Fine Arts in Yogyakarta. He currently stays in Indonesia. Known as the 'Koi Fish painter', Rujiman's abstract oil paintings are heavily impasto-ed, which adds great energy to his subject matter. He transfers the movements, color schemes and implications of Koi fish from his memory onto canvas using a pallet knife, and captures a style that spans abstract to semi-abstract to Impressionism. The artist has shown much cultural achievement as a fish painter and is skilled in connecting aesthetics with Asian philosophy. He is highly recognized in Indonesia and is rapidly gaining popularity for his style.
