Naiza Khan’s multidisciplinary practice encompasses drawing, sculpture, archival material, and film, intertwining themes of land, body, and memory. Her work is rooted in critical research, documentation, and mapping-based exploration, raising significant questions about colonial history, collective memory, and the impact of old and new infrastructures. By engaging with museum collections and the circulation of objects tied to migration across the Indian Ocean, Khan’s art critiques contemporary crises related to borders and migration. She works between London and Karachi, continuing to create work that bridges personal and political histories. Photo by Malika Abbas.
