Modern Traditions is a heartwarming tribute to the amazing strength and grace of women who mix cultural heritage with the bright colours of modern life. This piece is all about celebrating the key role women play in bringing together tradition and progress, showing off their resilience and elegance in the face of change. Minangkabau headdresses hold deep cultural significance, symbolising the rich heritage of the Minangkabau culture with their characteristic horn-like protrusions representing the revered buffalo horns associated with strength and unity. Created by Sharifah Bahiyah, it shows women in a light of power and poise, capturing a beautiful balance of fluidity and strength that echoes our cultural roots. Having Modern Traditions in your space isn't just a treat for the eyes; it's a constant source of inspiration, a nod to the timeless strength of womanhood and a cheer for the beautiful dance between our past and present. Part of the Minangkabau Monochrome Collection, this artwork connects with nature and sparks personal reflection with its intriguing, faceless figures. It tells a powerful story about female empowerment and cultural unity.

Malaysia
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.
