I am an artist, architect, and educator based in Karachi. My practice is rooted in drawing, using line, texture and mark-making to explore memory, architecture and the quiet transformations of urban life. What began as a personal habit of observing the city has evolved into a sustained body of work that reflects on what we choose to preserve and what we allow to fade.

After graduating from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture, I began focusing on Karachi’s disappearing architectural landscape. Over time, my work has been exhibited in galleries across the city, with each show marking a shift: from detailed studies of overlooked buildings to more expansive, emotionally charged cityscapes.

I work primarily in pen, ink and charcoal, often isolating structures from their surroundings to emphasize their form and quiet endurance. Many of these buildings carry the weight of shared histories — worn facades, tangled wires, fading signage — and through drawing, I try to hold onto these fragments before they vanish entirely.

In addition to my art practice, I teach at the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture. I also co-run a furniture and architecture studio. Whether through drawing, teaching or building, I remain deeply interested in how things are made, how they age and what stories they carry.
