Artists Asad Ali Zulfiqar, Hira Noor, Ume Laila and Waleed Zafar talk about their new work, made during the New Narratives in Photography residency programme, including a conversation about the importance of international collaboration and professional development opportunities.
The four artists all have a unique and personal approach to photography, exploring themes of identity, gender, diaspora and place making, they all have something to say about the world we live in. They come from a place of care, compassion and collaboration; their work is based on research and conversation and their artwork is of great relevance and interest, both as emerging practitioners in Pakistan, and to the photography scene internationally.
New Narratives in Photography has been produced by GRAIN Projects (Birmingham, UK) and Tasweerghar (Lahore, Pakistan), supported by the British Council’s Arts Residency Grants Programme 2023-2024.
