The Atlas Six – A Book Review
It’s been a while since I finished this book. And I’ve been meaning to write a review forEVER but somehow I just didn’t get around to it. It was almost easier to make a video review–because that was just like talking spontaneously about the book–other than the fact that I sound really awkward and talk

Reassessing where I’m headed
Jonathan was right. Jonathan, was my MA Fine Art teacher FYI, and also the best human being I’ve ever known. He was right when, during one of my MA tutorials he said when people reach their goals, it isn’t as gratifying as one would imagine. Why not? I thought then, I’d give anything to see

My continuing journey as a writer…
When I was 12, I thought I was a writer. I had such confidence in my little self that would lie on the cold ridged floor of our spare room holding an all-in-one giant version of Lord of the Rings. I even made a little notebook and wrote a whole manuscript, and then dumped it

The MA Fine Art chapter comes to an end
Have you ever seen those moments in movies, so unreal yet so desirable, that you feel a slight hitch in your throat from longing while knowing they’ll never actually happen to you?

The Untold Edition returns
In 2019 when I walked away from UAL for the last time, I felt a sense of completion. My thesis project was done, it felt amazing to receive recognition for it, and it had culminated in the most incredible tour of Karachi. What more could I want? The Untold Edition seemed to be reaching its

Final Show Final Set up
After a gruelling journey (6 hours on plane and then multiple occurrences to delay us further!) we finally made it to our airbnb. I was unable to make it to university on the 1st and I think I helped out far too less even on the 2nd and 3rd. But I definitely underestimated the challenges

MindMap and WeHe Exhibitions
A while ago I was invited to a private viewing at Athr Gallery’s latest exhibit consisting of a group of international artists. When I went there I realized there was another exhibit on display on a different floor. So I got to see MindMap and WeHe at the same time. Mindmap was interesting to me

A rock and a hard place
A couple of months ago, right before the low residency in fact, I had a bit of a tough time. I had been battering away at Jeddah’s closed doors for the whole of Unit 1 and I guess I felt a little low at the realization that, while I had made some progress, Jeddah wasn’t

Another library, another mural
Some time ago I heard of another little library popping up in a busy neighbourhood of Jeddah. It was a library built on book donations and I decided to donate what I knew best. We put out an ad (to fundraise for the library) and invited children to come paint with me. It took a
