Talking to APP, Ahmad Habib said that it would be an hour for him to have his art used for a charity and helping those who were unable to make both ends meet during the ongoing lockdown.
"Spending my quarantine period in my studio, I discovered different art strokes for my art and used novel colors to depict my thoughts through canvas", he added. He said this series was rather special for him as he used novel colors form his pallet that he never used before for any of his work.
"My architectural series is very special to me as I have taken a holistic approach using minimalistic tones - black and white in a circuit of creativity with discovering new elements of my own art skills," he added.
The exhibition, titled Saqafati Surr (cultural note), features 20 acrylic paintings depicting old Rawalpindi’s architecture that were all completed while the artist was confined to his home during the coronavirus lockdown. He paints crumbling walls and buildings with tree vegetation growing on their walls, electricity wires and birds, balconies, flying kites and other such subjects.
