| Over the past seventeen years, Shahzia Sikander has explored the genre of Indo-Persian miniature painting – creating a dialogue with a traditional form of art while engaging in a transformative task. Over the years, she has built a practice which seeks to understand miniature painting’s historical significance as well as its contemporary relevance. The reader enters this artist book through sixteen 'eyes' hidden under the jacket and is taken through her practice which now embraces various media, from drawing and painting through to animations. | |
