About the piece

This series is a dreamscape. Oil paint renders the mountains of Hunza Valley in deep, vibrant color — landscapes that feel both surreal and achingly known. Within them, figure and nature lose their separateness, held together through quiet moments of intimacy with animals, flora, and fauna. Through image transfer, newspaper clippings of rape and harassment are pressed beneath the nude androgynous figure's skin — history made visible, then transcended. Only what is true remains: freedom.

About the artist

Amber — LAHORE

Amber

LAHORE, PK

Amber Arifeen completed her masters in painting from Wimbledon College of Arts in 2019. She is a Pakistan – American visual artist, born and raised in Pakistan. After graduating from U.C Berkeley in 2011, she returned to Pakistan to work with an international women’s reproductive health organization, which gave her exposure to the contrasting realities of women living in Pakistan, across different classes, and to the ties that bind them. Her feminist practice and interest in the South Asian female subject draws inspiration from philosophers she studied as an undergraduate at U.C Berkeley and these experiences of living abroad and in Pakistan. Since then, she has had four solo shows and participated in several group shows in Karachi, Islamabad, Dubai, Paris, Berlin, and London. She will be debuting her work in the USA in February 2023, in Los Angeles. Her practice has evolved and expanded to include painting, performance, sound, animation, film and sculpture. In October of 2021 she was invited to participate at Domus Residency - an eco-feminist residence located in Southern Italy.
