The Sanat Initiative is holding an art exhibition titled ‘Ambivalence’ until May 8. The artist, Waseem Ahmed, says this body of work is about the current global environmental issues.
“While alerting about the fragility of our vital resources, the paintings in ‘Ambivalence’ suggest a feeling of threat and violence, and at the same time give awareness to save the environment for our next generation.”
The catalogue accompanying this exhibition says Ahmed was born in Hyderabad in 1976. He graduated with honours in miniature painting from the National College of Arts in Lahore in 2000. He currently lives and works in Lahore.
