Step into Tofu Szeyu’s studio as she shares the making of Undercurrent.

Tofu reflects on her process of building the installation through fragmented painted forms, organic shapes, and subtle shifts in colour and space. Rather than presenting a fixed image, Undercurrent invites us to piece together a figure that is always in the process of becoming.

Unfolding Conditions will be on view until 25 July.

We were delighted to welcome the students of IKONS International School to ATMA Contemporary.

During their visit, the students spent time engaging with the exhibition, discussing the artists’ works, and exploring the many ways contemporary art can encourage observation, dialogue and critical thinking. It was a pleasure to share the space with such an inquisitive group, and we hope the experience inspires them to continue looking, questioning, and creating.

Thank you to IKONS International School for visiting us, we look forward to welcoming you again.

Using meranti, chengal, and merbau wood salvaged from older structures, Saharudin Ali creates sculptural assemblages inspired by the traditional Malay house. Preserving the weathering, cracks, and traces of past joinery, he reassembles fragments of beams, frames and thresholds into forms that evoke memory rather than architecture. The work reflects on the knowledge embedded in old wood and building traditions that are increasingly overlooked today.

Asyraf Hidayat works primarily with cement, casting thin panels that hover between sculpture and painting. From afar, the works appear almost monochrome, but up close the scratches, trowel marks, discolourations, and surface imperfections begin to emerge. Rather than concealing these traces, Asyraf treats cement as a record of labour, process, and the human marks left behind within the material itself.

In Fazreen's work, he transforms the industrial brick into a fragile vessel for language and memory. Cast in plaster and marked with gestural Kelantanese scribbles, the bricks sit between object and text, construction and erosion. Drawing from his background in quantity surveying, Fazreen reflects on the ways inherited languages, like materials, can be built up, worn down, and gradually disappear from everyday use.

Alia Ismail transforms the apron into a record of care, labour, and motherhood. Layers of stitching, embroidery and patchwork sit alongside her son Alfie’s spontaneous drawings, bringing together two distinct gestures, the patient hand of sewing and the immediacy of a child’s mark.

Tofu Szeyu's Undercurrent is spread across a cluster of irregularly shaped panels, with a figure that only comes into view bit by bit. As your eye moves between the fragments, the image slowly takes shape, then slips apart again. The work draws from the feeling of thoughts and emotions that are difficult to pin down,always shifting, drifting and changing form. Rather than offering a clear picture, Tofu leaves space for uncertainty, treating the mind as something fluid, scattered, and constantly in motion.
