1994-4, Oil on Paper | Photo from the book
To say or think that Ayessha Quraishi is simply an artist who creates abstract art is a disservice to her. From her early drawings and doodles that began in the mid-1980s, to muted oils on paper last year, Quraishi has shown us much that we may possibly expect from an inventive, contemporary artist.
Her intelligent body of abstract art is chemical, to say the least, for it continues to transmute during an ongoing career that spans over three decades. Readers, collectors and art enthusiasts can now observe the trajectory of her art practice in the limited-edition print monograph Ayessha Quraishi: Between Light, Works: 1985-2020.
