Revealing the private in public.

Title: Enclosure I
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Size: 37 x 37 inches
Artist: Sabir Abro

This urban skyline is more than just a familiar view. It is a landscape of memory and lived experience, shaped by the ways people build, adapt and settle. The hazy, monochrome palette softens the specificity of the place, allowing the scene to sit somewhere between observation and recollection.

It offers a birdseye view into the enclosed - a public perspective of the hidden.

A fuller look at the artwork.

Closing-in to uncover the minute details in the panoramic view of the skyline.

A rooftop is a glimpse into what lives inside the little, walled-up private houses. Although lifestyles are hidden below, their traces appear above through water tanks, solar panels and terraces.
In addition to becoming a record of how people live, it is a visual map of class, culture, settlement and mundane functionality.

Title: Enclosure II
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Size: 13.5 x 19.5 inches
Artist: Sabir Abro

ArtSoch Contemporary presents “What Was Meant to Stay Private,” our upcoming show, opening this Friday, 18th September, 5:30pm.
In a world where memories are archived, experiences are documented, and identities are constantly shared, privacy is no longer a fixed boundary. It shifts through intimacy, secrecy, vulnerability, memory, culture, and power.
“What Was Meant to Stay Private” questions what we choose to conceal, what becomes exposed, and what remains unseen.

This artwork depicts a traditional Shia juloos - a procession moving through the roads during Ashura. The artist observes Muharram, tracing how ritual is localized through geography, craft, architecture, and ornament. At its centre are the Muharram processions of Lahore - the streets, crowds, and structures that hold the ritual each year.

Title: Where Every Step Becomes a Remembering
Medium: Acrylic, Photo Transfer and Gold Leaf on Board
Size: 18 x 24 inches
Artist: Faariha Kazmi

The work moves between the personal, communal, and the spiritual, exploring how collective grief becomes a form of transformation. It asks what becomes uniquely ours through devotion, and what remains intact as tradition passes from hand to hand.

Let’s zoom into its detail - the muted palette of deep blacks, ochres, and browns, contrasted by glimmering silver and visible brushstrokes, scraping, and layering.

This realistic portrait of a peacock emerges from a dark background, with its finely detailed feathers rendered in warm earthy tones. Its striking, lifelike eye adds a sense of quiet presence, while its crown is transformed into vibrant floral forms inspired by traditional Phulkari embroidery.

Title: Taaj
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Size: 66 x 54 inches
Artist: Nimrah Khatana

DM for more details!

A wider look at the piece! The rich reds, oranges, pinks, and ochres create a beautiful fusion of nature and ornamentation. Cultural motifs are integrated into the bird’s anatomy, creating a connection between Punjabi heritage, cultural memory, and the natural world.

Up close with “Taaj’s” detail - the soft feathers contrast with sharp, watchful eye. Earthy tones ground the composition, brought to life by the vibrant pinks and reds of the traditional
phulkari crown.

A forgotten journey, carried through generations - where memory, labour, and family history meet.
This artwork depicts a vintage automobile emerging from a faded landscape. The muted, monochromatic tones suggest memories that have gradually lost their colour, while the dark vehicle represents the weight of labour, heritage, and the industrial world associated with coal mining. Through the work, the automobile becomes a symbol of movement between past and present, reflecting family legacy, struggle, resilience, and the emotional connection to a forgotten industrial history.
Available for purchase at ArtSoch Contemporary! DM for more details.

Title: Blahite
Medium: Ink and Gouache on Papers
Size: 16 x 12 inches
Artist: Yasir Noor

A framed look at “Blahite” on the walls of ArtSoch Contemporary!

Detail shot of the intricate miniature technique.

Are we performing because we want to, or because we have no choice?

“Majboori Ya Natak” explores survival, performance, and the realities of South Asian culture. The clown’s colourful costume, painted smile, and gajra represent the traditions and expectations we carry while hiding what we truly feel.
Title: Majboori Ya Natak
Medium: Digital Print on Card Stock Paper
Size: 25.5 x 19.5 inches
Artist: Musawir Ahmed

DM to book this artwork!

In our society, we learn to say “sab theek hai” even when it isn’t. Surrounded by passing cars and people who barely notice, the clown becomes a symbol of those who perform happiness not always by choice, but because sometimes survival itself becomes a performance.

Closing into the linework.
