Rumah Kita
Solo Exhibition by Nik M Shazmie
31 Jan - 14 Feb 2026
This Rumah Kita (Our Home) series extends from his UOB Painting of the Year 2025 winning piece. Rumah Kita (Our Home) is a reflection on Malaysia as a shared space shaped by difference, imperfection, and coexistence. Drawing inspiration from the raw presence of durian and the weight of Brutalist architecture, Nik M Shazmie brings together elements of local culture and urban form to explore ideas of belonging and resilience.
Through a process of stacking, translating, and reimagining durian shells into sculpture and painting, the works reveal surfaces marked by cracks, textures, and imbalance. These imperfections are embraced as signs of process and lived experience rather than flaws. Rumah Kita suggests that harmony does not emerge from uniformity, but from how varied forms and identities support one another to stand together, forming a home that is imperfect, grounded, and continually growing.
This exhibition runs from 31 January to 14 February 2026 at G13 Gallery.
