Abstract

An interview with Pakistani artist Shahzia Sikander is presented. She talks about the shared geographies and histories of Hindus and Muslims, as well as her goal to subvert the Hindu-Muslim traditions through her art. She explains how she confronts the issues that arise when she uses religious imagery in her works. She discusses how living outside India and Pakistan has affected her freedom to express her thoughts through her art.
