Take a moment to bask in Anila Quayyum Agha’s sculptural chamber of light and shadow.
Persian and Turkish architecture, textiles and miniature paintings inspire the precise, stylized floral forms that compose All The Flowers Are For Me. Originally from Lahore, Pakistan, and now living in the United States, artist Anila Quayyum Agha is acutely attuned to the social codes that inform the lives of Muslim women and immigrants. She describes this work as her effort to create a sense of how women can reclaim and safely open up private space to welcome others.
A favorite for yoga classes and wedding proposals (and a whole lot of Instagram posts), this luminous, welcoming installation provides us all an opportunity to contemplate the differences and commonalities that shape our lives and relationships.
