Shaan Taseer
I am an artist and an activist for the rights of minorities and people affected by religious violence, having experienced religious violence up close and personally.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I am a traveler and I paint wanderlust. My art is an invitation to see all the places I have been to. The city is the star of my show. Silent and eternal; the shadows and crevices of peoples living spaces are often reflections of their inner worlds. I seek to discover that world and juxtapose it against the beauty and violence of existence. I invite the viewer to discover my cities. Does the city reveal its secrets? I let the viewer decide.
