Hamza Bin Faisal

I’m a visual artist (born in 1998) based in Lahore.
I graduated with a distinction in miniature painting from National College of Arts, Lahore in 2022. My work spans different media and material, ranging from digital art to traditional drawing, painting, printmaking and sculpture. And my work practice aims at exploring the self, the existence, and multiple visual allegories about ethical and social dilemmas.



I make compositions combining and juxtaposing the concept of boxes and architectural spaces (often domestic). These small-scale, detailed pictorial compositions are a documentation of local residences that offer social and cultural evidence of existence devoid of human presence. These spaces often carry a sense of absence, contested histories, fragments of memories and traces of lost voices, resurfacing a dialogue with the viewer to suggest or reveal the depths of truth confined within these walls.
