When contemporary artist Roslisham Ismail, better known as Ise, died 2019, there was a pending project that he was looking forward to sharing with the Malaysian audience.
This project, which he first titled
Campur, Tolak, Kali, Bahagi, Sama Dengan (Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide, Equals) in a notebook during a trip to Germany in 2016, was meant to be unveiled in 2019.
But it was not to be.
Ise died from health complications aged 46 in Kuala Lumpur in July 2019 and the exhibition was put on hold.
