The thorny battle called 'Ultraman vs Sarjan Durian' (acrylic on canvas, 2017). Edroger Rosili's 'Jepun Attack Malaya' series features Ultraman battling local local fruits and veg.
It has been going on for long enough in his studio, this stand-off between a well-loved fictional superhero and the king of fruits. A few years ago, Edroger Rosili pitted Ultraman against a durian in one of his paintings.
This year, they make a comeback in another work – an even more enthusiastic Ultraman taking on an improved version of the durian. Managing to be stoic and menacing at the same time, the beloved durian even feels like it has a few more thorns this time around.
