Artwork ‘Deen-o-Duniya’ goes on display
Globally celebrated artist Imran Qureshi proudly presented 'Deen-o-Duniya' - The Sacred and the Earthly; a site-specific installation at the ongoing Karachi Biennale 2022.
In 'Deen O Dunya', Imran Qureshi captures video projection and sound-based work to interpret and showcase boundaries of religious rituals, culture and modern technology merged in a carnivalesque form.
"Deen o Duniya - The Sacred and the Earthly is an installation I would be humbled for everyone to experience. It is one where residents of a local neighborhood go through profound physical and emotional experiences when their homes, streets, and entire neighborhoods undergo an intense transformation." said Imran Qureshi.
Indeed, Imran Qureshi expands the language of miniature painting in the form of such site-specific installations, three-dimensional works, videos, and paintings. His work continues to be firmly rooted in the tradition of miniature painting.
Deen-o-Duniya can be visited at Hamid Market - one of the 9 venues of the 2022 Karachi Biennale from now - 13th November from 10am to 5pm on weekdays, and from 10am to 6pm on weekends.
