Contemporary artist Ilham Fadhli took the uncommon step of waiting more than 12 years to return to the art gallery scene with a new solo exhibition.

In the next few days, he will be overseeing the dismantling of his Hotel Fugitif exhibition, which has been showing at the Galeri Puteh art space in Kuala Lumpur in the last few weeks.
