About The Artwork

Heritage Unveiled brings the stunning Minangkabau headdress to life, showcasing it as a symbol of women's strength and cultural identity. This piece is a tribute to the incredible resilience and community spirit among Minangkabau women, as seen in their traditional headdresses. But Heritage Unveiled is more than just art. It's a bridge to the rich world of cultural stories, helping us all appreciate our heritages. It's a celebration of diversity and the unity it brings, inviting everyone to celebrate the different backgrounds we come from. Incorporating the earth's own colour palette, this artwork connects us more deeply with the world around us. Portraying a traditional costume in a contemporary way, the artist Sharifah Bahiyah leaves out facial details to make it an interactive experience, encouraging us to imagine the stories, emotions, and histories behind these intriguing figures.

A self-taught artist based in Malaysia, my work is an embodiment of celebration, empowerment and cultural richness where every canvas tells a tale of female strength and beauty. Tracing my maternal lineage to the Royal family of Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia, I honour Minangkabau customs and traditions that define Negeri Sembilan's rich cultural heritage. Extraordinary and distinct, Minangkabau culture is defined by its unique matrilineal system where inheritance and property are passed down through the women, underlining their important role in preserving their heritage. In homage to my roots, my artwork captures the essence of my heritage. Debuting with my Monochrome Collection, I spotlight the iconic Minangkabau headdresses, which symbolise feminism and women's empowerment. My hope is for viewers to engage in a meaningful dialogue about the importance of preserving our cultural heritage, the crucial role women play in societies and to inspire feelings of joy, optimism and a sense of empowerment in each viewer. Each piece I create goes on a journey, weaving a visual story that links the past and present by blending tradition with modern flair. My art is driven by a belief in the progressive power of femininity and a firm conviction that the future is undeniably female. Welcome to my world where heritage, empowerment and art seamlessly come together.
