 is talk\, Hajra Waheed will be discussing recent and past projects. Waheed’
 s sprawling multidisciplinary practice explores the vicissitudes of violenc
 e and injustice with a uniquely poetic approach and engagement with the wor
 ld. Weaving between the intimate and infinite constellations of the communi
 ties she is a part of\, her works –while rooted in the historical– are at o
 nce transgressive of history\, consistently imagining new possibilities tow
 ards a radically collective and borderless future. </span><span data-ccp-pr

 n data-contrast="none">Hajra Waheed’s multidisciplinary practice ranges fro
 m painting and drawing to video\, sound\, sculpture and installation. Among
 st other issues\, she explores the nexus between security\, surveillance an
 d the covert networks of power that structure lives\, while also addressing
  the traumas and alienation of displaced subjects affected by legacies of c
 olonial and state violence. Characterised by a distinct visual language and
  unique poetic approach\, her works often use the ordinary as a means to co
 nvey the profound\, and landscape as a medium to transpose human struggle a
 nd a radical politics of resistance and resilience.  </span></p><p><span da
