"In the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved, there was a Whale, and he ate fishes. He ate the starfish and the garfish, and the crab and the dab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and the mackereel and the pickereel...” (Rudyard Kipling, “How the Whale Got His Throat”)

Yusof Majid takes the title of his new exhibition from Rudyard Kipling‘s Just So Stories, which began as stories told to the writer‘s own children. The paintings created for this show are rooted in childhood memory and are in a large sense dedicated to the freedom and happiness of a child’s imagination.
