We were eager to meet up with Juhari Said, one of Malaysia's dedicated printmaker. So much has he contributed to printmaking in Malaysia during his 2 decades of printmaking, always pushing to further the art. He's life and work is best summarised in
Prof. A. Rahman Mohamed's essay. Recently he has found a new direction as chronicled by
Dr Tony Donalson.
Here's a photo essay of our visit :
