      • Anassuwandi Ahmad (b. 1967) Trap Series #7, 2010
        Mar. 24, 2019

        Anassuwandi Ahmad (b. 1967) Trap Series #7, 2010

        Est: RM5,000 - RM8,000

        An object, whatever the forms or material, is animated by its function. Take the bubu, the traditional fish trap once popularly used in Asia and now less so, which reveals Man’s ingenuity in providing food, in this case catching food, using natural materials like bamboo or others like wire mesh and steel rods. The bubu, before the advent of trawler nets and other advanced implements, is economical and also a sign of simpler times. Under Anassuwandi Ahmad’s hands, the bubu, with shadows from the spotlight, is abstracted into an artwork comprising plywood, iron, canvas, bitumen and acrylic, but with the intrinsic symbol intact. The trap, which can be put in low-lying waters or floated or drawn in the deeper waters down to even 100 metres, can be used to trap grouper, snapper or lobster, and cautions against succumbing to temptations, with the risk of the trapper being trapped. So, an understanding of the currents is also imperative, or the trap could be dragged away by strong waves. The trap comes in all shapes – cylindrical, rectangle, trapezoid, half-round, dome or cone. The way Anassuwandi juxtaposes the three-piece work, it has a ceremonial and ritual effect too. Anassuwandi Ahmad is a fulltime artist.
