Liew Kwai Fei 廖贵辉 (b. 1979, Kuantan, Pahang) is recognised today as among the most exciting new generation of contemporary painters in Malaysia. Spanning over a decade, his practice explores the hybridity of the painting medium and its capacity to communicate ideas spanning class, race, and language to the humbling experience of the unspeakable when we encounter art. Including Nothing Personal, Liew has had eleven solo exhibitions to date, the most recent of which were: In Order to Play (2021), Fish In Pure Water (2020), and From M to M (2019), all at The Back Room, Kuala Lumpur. He has also participated in numerous group showcases, including the ILHAM Contemporary Forum, ILHAM Gallery, Kuala Lumpur (2017) and ArtStage Singapore 2016. His works are in the collections of the National Art Gallery Malaysia and the Singapore Art Museum.
