Abu Jalal Sarimon is a 3rd generation Singapore’s Artist. He is known as the Social Commentary artist. Sarimon is the Founder of Freedom & Love International Art Group, Founding Members of TUJU Art Group, Executive Member of Singapore Modern Art Society, Head of Imago Mundi Singapore and Senior Member of Singapore Malay Artists of Various Resources (APAD).

He creates each artwork as an avenue to share and challenge the viewer’s natural and ideological perceptions of this fast shaping world. Driven by his sharp observation and conceptual visual expression, aesthetic variations transform common idea with a fundamental concern towards society, the environment and humanities.
Sarimon enjoys working with acrylic on canvas for an apparent reason; acrylic dries fast. Hence he was able to apply more layer of colours on the canvas, producing variation of texture, bold effect and strong lines.

Acrylic, which is a water-based medium is also much cleaner and able to withstand against tropical heat. Sarimon loves travelling, sketching, reading and writing. Hence those good habits influence most of his works. He has travelled and exhibited in many parts of the world, namely; Singapore, China, Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Dubai, Iran, Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Macau, Netherlands, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Turkey, Italy and recently Tunisia.

Sarimon loves to explore the richness, joyous and harmonious of colours. He picks human, nature and objects around him as subject matter that gives freshness and spontaneity to life. He portrays an interesting perspective to his paintings by applying the vibrant colours, the creative styling, the strong drawing skill with intellectual inclinations yet comical in composition.
