Artist of the Week - 20th February 2011
My work investigates the concept of cultures, in particular my struggle between two societies; my origins in Pakistan and the Western society, which I live in. The paintings explore the contrast of cultures and uses bright colours which originate from traditional Asian clothing. Mehndi (is an Urdu meaning for ‘henna’) designs are applied to the paintings using western tools, such as biro and gel pens, integrating the two cultures.
