Pakistan
Lahore, 1982
Saba Khan was born in 1982, in Lahore, Pakistan and lives and works between Lahore/London. Her interdisciplinary work stretches over the fields of art, ecology, performance, colonial histories which come together through expeditions, research and fieldwork. The work explores the history and politics of water bodies, flow, fluidity-bodies blocking water and bodies moving along water. Her work weaves through the language of memorial, monument and public projects, balancing grandeur, artifice and satire in order to explore the cracks in the structures. Saba has taught at the National College of Arts, Lahore and now teaches at the Chelsea College of Arts, London. Saba founded Murree Museum Artist Residency and a satirical collective ‘Pak Khawateen Painting Club’. She recently exhibited at Swiss Institute, USA, National Museums of Qatar, Doha, 2024, Sharjah Biennial 15, UAE, Sharjah Art Foundation, UAE, 2022, Lahore Biennial 02, Pakistan, 2020.
