A solo show by Faiza Khan opened at the Collectors’ Galleria at Al Hamra Gaddafi Stadium on Tuesday, November 15, 2011. Faiza’s major work has been done in oil on canvas. Oil colours in fact, she admits, are her strength and fascination. In the vivid coloured paintings displayed at the vast hall of Collector’s Galleria, Faiza’s paintings were seen by Lahore’s art circles and art critics. “My recent work is a manifestation of my personal, socio-political activities and abomination faced by humanity,” says Faiza Khan, who is doing a fourth solo show since 2000. “I strive to highlight an eclipsed journey of emotions which often depicts oscillation conditions of women between integrity, grace and benediction, isolation, oppression and struggle for a life liberated from fear.” She says she particularly focuses on the sensitive portrayal of the weak in the society, especially women and children.
