Gaze: An Exhibition
Join T2F this Saturday to Asad Kamran and Misha Japanwala’s Exhibiton ‘Gaze’. This series of work merges Japanwala’s narrative of her exploration into what it means to be a Pakistani woman, with Kamran’s commentary centered around care-less, narcissistic masculinity and the male gaze in Pakistan. The juxtaposition of their work, both visually and what it represents, is presented here, in an effort to challenge the viewer and the artists to think, reflect and question.
