Join exhibiting artist Shazia Ahmad for a virtual artist talk, in conjunction with her exhibition, Invitation.

Invitation, an exhibition of screen-printed works on fabric and paper, incorporates a vibrant limited colour palette and printed patterns centred on home and belonging. The centrepiece is a blanket fort which invites people inside to have a seat or rest quietly.

Shazia Ahmad (she/her) is a half-Pakistani, half-Chilean painter and printmaker living in Brossard, QC. Her practice is centred on the notions of home and belonging, tied to the broader theme of otherness due to her interfaith and unique mixed-race background. She is the recipient of several Canada Council for the Arts grants and has exhibited her work at The Rooms, Grenfell Art Gallery, Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal, Unit1 Gallery London amongst others. She was a member of artch's 2024 emerging artist cohort and the Don Wright Scholar at St. Michael's Printshop. She has a forthcoming residency at Atelier Imago.
