Washed Upon the Shore – Marking
2015
Canvas Gallery – Karachi
Curated by Amin Gulgee

Ali Junejo lay on the floor as Syed Ammad Tahir dotted his bare chest with swamp-green paint. Their eyes locked, the pair appeared to be in communion as much with each other as with Fecund Landscape, a Boschian installation of three monolith-like copper sculptures of colored glass and egg forms moored within a rectangle of broken bottles. The juxtaposition of sculpture and performance imagined utopias and the currents that flow between bodies and landscapes.
