A group show at Art Scene Gallery showcased the works of some of Pakistan’s finest artists. Art in Flux brings together a diverse group of artists whose works reflect the meeting of different artistic approaches, philosophies and media, displaying their works at this exhibition were Abdul Jabbar Khan, Noor Mohyuddin, Kamran Khaskheli, Mahwish Khan, Urooj Faheem, Zahra Jadoon, Hira Imtiaz, Sana Nezam, Mariya Shaikh, Aimen Tirmizi and Farah Anwer.

Qasim Bugti, the curator of show, shares “In this space, art is not static but in a state of constant flux – a living dialogue between the past and the present, the familiar and the avant-garde, the personal and universal. The artworks presented here push the boundaries of perception, encouraging the viewer to navigate the shifting rides of meaning and interpretation”.

Sana Nezam explores the balance between chaos, tranquility, embodied in the juxtaposition of abstract and representational elements. The textured, vivid background reflects the complexity of the world – its unpredictability, conflicts and layered emotions.

Noor Mohyuddin’s work revolves around human’s being curious. The curiosity of wanting to know things and to reveal things that others may not be aware of is what the artist is highlighting and questioning.

Zahra Jadoon works explores the human form and the many ways, mediums, shapes in which it can be expressed. “I use my art as a window to show how humans are woven into the fabric of nature. Uncovering the surface lies a captivating complexity. I am driven by the intricate dance of muscle, bone and organ and the layers of skin – the eery building blocks of our being.”

Kamran Khaskheli is inspired by the sunsets and nature that surround his native hometown of Badin. His paintings explode with colour. He works in layers and his work is full of texture and movement which make his work stand out.

Aimen Tirmizi’s work is influenced by the complexities of cultural norms that impact South Asian identities. “Through my paintings I often blur the boundaries between humanity and nature, symbolizing the deep interconnections between human actions and the natural world. These works convey narratives of struggle, resilience and introspection.”

Artistic practices that one sees in this exhibition explore the fluidity of ideas and the mingling of different creative ideas and thoughts, all set in the background of tradition and innovation.
