‘Letters to Pakistan’, was a chance for me to amend my old deepest wounds attached with my childhood memories and my soil. I took this opportunity as a process to heal my relationship with my soil. Suddenly, I was finding myself as an outsider, displaced. However, through writing three letters of resentments and lastly final letter of love, I couldn’t be more grateful for my country’s rich culture that is saturated in love and spirituality.
Living in England since 2009, I missed my people, culture, food, neighborhood, clothes, language for years but I realized that I maybe out of Pakistan but Pakistan was never out of me. I am Pakistan. The letter presented for this exhibition is an expression of pure love and gratitude that I feel for my home, Pakistan.
