Candy Land Painting
Pakistan
Painting, Gouache on Paper
Size: 12 W x 7 H x 0.1 D in
About The Artwork
In my contemporary miniature painting style, I merge my inner childhood fantasies of CandyLand with post-colonial inferences, thereby merging reality with fiction. This piece was painted on a 1930s Indian rupee note as an inference to my country, Pakistan's colonial past when it was part of a single, united India under British rule until independence in 1947. This also asks, what is this 'candy' we are fed by politicians and rulers, that tastes good temporarily, but doesn't last long?
