Aniqa Ikram

Artist Statement
My style is the amalgamation of traditional technique of miniature with modern/ contemporary style. As trends change with time to time from generation to generation. The connection, the relation & the joining of passed on & living yet is lived by everyone. The fact of rhythm can also be seen in the reality of life & death. A common assumption is that belief in conspiracy theories and supernatural phenomena are grounded in illusory pattern perception. The connection, the relation & the joining of passed on & living yet is lived by everyone. The development of pattern-based thinking, using patterns to analyse and solve problems, is an extremely powerful tool for doing mathematics. Precious stones and some other things of daily use are the integral part of my compositions.
