Ajim Juxta @ajim_juxta
b. 1983, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Better known in the art scene as Ajim Juxta, Raja Azeem Idzham is a young multi-talented visual artist who’s formal training is in architecture. After graduation Ajim worked as an architect for some three years, before coming to the realisation that his true calling was in
visual art, a realisation that eventually lead him to make the decision to become a full-time artist.

As an artist Ajim Juxta is not afraid to experiment with new media types, or explore new ways of using mediums he is already adept at. The training he had in architecture, however, has not gone to waste. This young artist’s artworks are akin to organic blueprints created to make sense of a world seen as having gone wrong in many ways.

Ajim draws upon ideas of dystopian realities that many have ended up being in whilst in pursuit of personal utopias. In the process of these pursuits, the important aspects of life that should rightly be the focus remain left by the wayside. The artist sees the lives of these individuals as being neither here nor there, constantly in a state of discontent, yet lost as to what fulfillments truly entails.
