When I was a child my mother used to tell me stories where I was the hero in a strange mystical world with endless possibilities. I used to navigate my way through the peculiar plot twist to reach the ultimate happy ending. Those stories somewhat became reality when I moved from Hyderabad to a metropolitan city like Karachi. I had to navigate my routes to find comfort. The fear of the unknown and being displaced from your familiar surroundings is an overwhelming journey. In my small-scale illustrative paintings, I create my sanctuary in a city that I am at a distance with. To me, home is not just a physical space but comfort stems from memories, emotions, moments, or simply an association with physical objects and space. Relating to characters from classic storybooks like “Alice In Wonderland”. I further take inspiration from these storybooks for drawing and color palettes. Windows act as portals between the realms of comfort and the city of the unknown.
