Faizan Ali Awan

Faizan belongs to a society where art is not considered freedom, but a boundary. Born in a rural area of Pakistan, he grew up in an environment where traditions strongly shaped people’s lives. Those traditions often restricted him from expressing himself through art, but deep inside, he always longed to break free from those boundaries. Growing up in a society rooted in convention and limited by lack of freedom, he dreamed of painting without fear. For him, creativity exists everywhere—he finds inspiration in the simplest things, and art has become his way of turning that vision into freedom.He wonders about the old masters who didn't recognize in art world but later got what world needs to see.

He is deeply fascinated by the works of the Old Masters. He often chooses their paintings at random, recreating them with his own brush to explore their anatomy, specialties, and hidden stories. Each stroke becomes a way for him to analyze and understand what made their art so extraordinary. This process fuels his endless curiosity and helps him grow, not only as a painter but also as a storyteller through colors.
