Saulat Ajmal

Saulat Ajmal is a visual artist, writer, curator, and educationist. She went to Virginia Commonwealth University for her Master of Fine Arts and Hunter College New York for a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a second one in sociology. Her practice includes paintings, performances, and installations that investigate the overlapping of social constructs with formal aspects of material and medium. Invoking ideas of history and fiction through an abstract lens. She is a core member of the Pak Khawateen Painting Club collective and a permanent faculty member of the National College of Arts Lahore. Saulat uses fluidity to develop her visual vocabulary through borrowing freely from both Eastern and Western art historical narratives and traditions. Creating a language using color, patterns, gestures and fluid forms as symbols of both expression and suggestion she speaks to her own morphing reality. De-materializing the figure and reimagining the experience of the body is where her work moves beyond representation.
