VM Art Gallery is pleased to present “Let There

VM Art Gallery is pleased to present “Let There Be Night”, a group show featuring works by Amber Arifeen, Anushka Rustomji, Bibi Hajra, Khadijah Rehman, Khadija S.Akhtar, Mohsin Shafi and Noreen Ali. The exhibition will open on 15th December 2022 at 5pm and continue till 31st December 2022, Monday to Saturday, 11 am to 7 pm.

The night covers the day but brings to light worlds, old and new, natural and supernatural. With its veil, it unveils the shadows, forms of existence, tales and secrets, and memories clandestine. The night holds within many stories and nods to the mystics. This exhibition surveys each artist’s exploration of the night.

VM Art Gallery is pleased to announce Memoirs of a Hybrid, a solo presentation of works by Shameen Arshad. The exhibition will open at 5pm on 8th September 2022 and continue till 27th September 2022, Monday to Saturday, 11am to 7pm.

Shameen Arshad’s work looks at the fluidity of identity and the evolving nature of the category “Pakistani”. Stemming from her personal experiences, she explores a confused sense of the self and various ideas of ownership by giving tangibility to the multi-dimensional yet indeterminate character of that label.

Reflecting on the tumultuous geo-political history, and the effects of colonialism and cultural imperialism, Arshad’s artwork tends to illustrate a sense of displacement and dislocation, the feeling of residing in no man’s land and being unable to call any place home.

VM Art Gallery is pleased to present Emblems of H

VM Art Gallery is pleased to present Emblems of Here, Then and Now, a two-person show featuring works by Amna Suheyl and Haniya Ali Athar. The exhibition will open on 27th July 2022 at 5pm and continue till 20th August 2022, Monday to Saturday, 11am to 7pm.

Through their unique methods of printmaking, viewers are taken through the artists' journey of resolving and defining identities, history and self.

The myriad reflections of the feminine are pivotal to Amna Suheyl’s narrative as a researcher and visual artist. Her work is inspired by her family’s matriarchal history as well as an observation of the feminine presence around her. Suheyl turns women in her daily life into characters – heroines, who maintain the harmony of life through empathy and companionship. They appear as harbingers of hope, sustenance, and calm; sometimes as storytellers carrying traditions forward, sometimes being the subtle burden-carriers of loss, and other times as the fertile, the sensual, the formidable. The feminine manifests new beginnings from the ashes of broken societies.

Haniya Ali Athar’s work documents her quest of finding herself through various objects that surround her, inspire her and hold diverse meaning for her. The play of mundane and utilitarian items form the essence of her work where they are not lifeless materials but characters with human like presence. The fantasy like visual language of Athar’s work reflects a surreal state of mind.
