Lahore Nehar Under the Monsoon Sky

With an Honours degree in miniature painting from the National College of Arts, Lahore, Mehreen F, embarked on her artistic journey in 2015. Her works have been exhibited in galleries across Pakistan. Her work predominantly revolves around exploring the silent narratives embedded in the structures around us. She aims to convey the beauty found in quiet reflection and the timeless allure of the spaces we inhabit and cherish. Trained in traditional miniature painting, her style blends tradition with contemporary sensibilities, often manifesting in minimalist compositions. She is using mediums like gouache, acrylic, and gold leaf. Employing relief techniques, she strives to evoke feelings of nostalgia, security, and warmth, drawing inspiration from the places she has encountered, lived in, and hold dear. Through this amalgamation of memory fragments, her reference for navigation, the Lahore Canal is one interesting affair.
