About the artwork
Dive into the lively world of "Moving," where Rujiman brings a school of koi to life amidst a kaleidoscope of aquatic hues. The background, composed of countless individual brushstrokes in blues, greens, and purples, creates a shimmering, dappled water effect, full of movement and light. Each koi, with its distinct markings and palpable texture, swims with purpose, contributing to the overall sense of dynamic energy. This painting captures the exhilarating motion of fish in their element, a vibrant celebration of life’s journey and the endless flow of potential.
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.
