Visible Invisible

This is an early work by Aisha Khalid and one of the most appealing aspects of this work is that she uses an object that holds special significance for her personally. She uses embellished gold-worked decorations from her father’s wedding garland as elements in this artwork as well as creating a miniature painting. The miniature painting at the centre of this triptych uses the geometric elements and the image of the veil or the curtain which continues to appear in her work to this day. While the decorations from the wedding garland sit on velvet on both sides of the painting.
