Bob “Sick” Agung’s art are reflections on the human condition – both the turmoil in society and the struggles of the individual soul. Many of his exhibitions and works explicitly grapple with themes of existential angst, resilience, and humanity’s darker sides. In fact, his 2019 Kuala Lumpur solo show was tellingly titled “Sick – An Exploration of the Human Condition,” highlighting his preoccupation with what it means to be human. Curators noted that “for an artist who seems to have lived a maximalist life, [his] works collectively speak of a haunting of the soul”, whether in response to external turmoil like war and violence or through introspective self-examination. His canvases often convey a sense of both personal demons and collective anxieties, suggesting that he channels his own life’s turbulence into a broader commentary on suffering, survival, and hope.
