ABOUT
NZARTSY✦NZXXContemporary Drawing & Storytelling Artist
•
I am a Bruneian artist working across traditional and digital drawing, with a focus on storytelling through images.
•
My practice explores memory, longing, emotional intimacy, and quiet human relationships through narrative drawing and sequential imagery.
•
Influenced by manga and contemporary graphic storytelling, I am interested in the moments that are often left unspoken — a glance, a memory, a distance between two people, or a feeling that is difficult to put into words.
•
Much of my work begins in the sketchbook. I see drawing not only as a way of creating an image, but as a way of recording a story as it unfolds. The physical pages, imperfections, sequencing, and traces of the process can become part of the work itself.
•
My work moves between intimate personal storytelling and contemporary drawing, with black-and-white imagery often forming its visual language.
