A group of Habib University's Communication and Design students organized an art exhibition at the PinkyGul this Friday and Saturday, titled 'Andekhey' [The Unseen]. Curated by President Arts and Culture Club Marium Asif, the organizers for this event also included Manahil Siddiqui, Zaina Noman, and Ariba Rafi.
The theme of this exhibition was the COVID-19 pandemic, with photographers, digital artists, and musicians coming together to share how they experienced life under the ensuing lockdown through their art. The venue, PinkyGul, is a women-centric community space which aims to promote and support young women artists.
