Faizal Yunus, It's not like I've been hoping, 2023, Oil and Metalic on canvas, 151 x 122 cm
Rissim Contemporary is pleased to announce Futures, a two-person show consisting of Faizal Yunus (b. Pahang, 1989) and Zul Hanafi (b. Perak, 1996) in collaboration with Richard Koh Fine Art.
Futures explores how technology has influenced the visual language of today, and its impact on the future. The visual elements associated with automation and artificial intelligence may appear human-like and natural, yet they are still driven by mechanical systems and code which are rigid, static, and inflexible. Futures looks to engage the dichotomy between automated systems and the rigid mechanical structures that lie behind them, as we shift towards an ever-changing tech-forward future.
