Hamir Soib

Hamir Soib (Born 1969) was active/lived in Malaysia.  Hamir Soib is known for Macabre, grotesque sociopolitical painting.

Born in Johor, Malaysia in 1969, Hamir Soib, a late bloomer among the founding members of the cult Matahati group, has shown a very sharp edge in his socio-political commentaries, related mostly to home. As the founder of The Gudang Warehouse Art Space in 2002, he achieved much in visual art as well as theatre and film productions, where he concentrated his efforts on earlier. Such was that he won Best Art Director with Zuraini Anuar in Perempuan Melayu Terakhir in the 14th Malaysia Film Festival. Not surprising, it was at The Gudang that Hamir Soib made his first solo exhibition in 2005. That year, he also won the Incentive Award in the Shah Alam Gallery Open. Hamir was a finalist in the Sovereign Art Award Hong Kong in 2007. As a Matahati icon, he was from the same ‘Class of ‘91’ graduation from the Universiti ITM. But he had already won a Consolation Prize in the Dokumentasi Kemiskinan competition in 1990.
