ROSIHAN DAHIM
Rosihan Dahim is a Singaporean artist (b.1955) whose work is deeply influenced by historical narratives, including the French and Spanish revolutions and the World Wars, stories he first heard from his father. A graduate of the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, he launched his celebrated Matchstick painting series in 1980. Since then, his award-winning art has been exhibited internationally. Dahim also works in watercolor, Chinese ink, and oil using these mediums to capture Singapore's heritage.
