Rafiee has made four pilgrimages to Morocco, with his first in 1987 and his most recent trip in May 2024. This time, he stayed in Tangier, the country’s literary capital. Each trip typically lasts three to four weeks. Photo: The Star/ M. Irsyad
Renowned artist Rafiee Ghani, who ventured into the world of wood sculpture last year by swapping his paintbrushes for chainsaws, returns to his artistic roots with a new exhibition that highlights his painterly techniques.
Rafiee Ghani In Morocco, his latest solo exhibition, opens this year’s art programming at G13 Gallery in Petaling Jaya. Running until Jan 25, the exhibition showcases Rafiee’s first full collection of watercolour works, bringing to life Morocco’s colourful souks, mesmerising landscapes, and serene spirituality through an array of large and small-scale pieces.
