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.

Established by a proud partnership with The Prince’s Foundation School of Traditional Arts, London, VM Centre for Traditional Arts is a full-time, one-year program that aims to help revive Pakistan’s artistic skills and techniques, and to revitalize the relevance of traditional arts in contemporary Pakistan.

The diploma program seeks to draw out the skills of both aspiring young artists and practicing professionals who are aiming to pursue or enhance a career in the field of art. The Prince’s Foundation School of Traditional Arts seeks to nurture within its students an understanding of the intrinsic, sacred value of the traditional arts.

The culmination of the diploma year is a project of the student’s own design that integrates geometry, design, and craftsmanship. This year the final project work includes carving, ralli, three-dimensional geometry, illuminated paintings, and satrangi tiles.
