Mulji completed her BFA from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture, Karachi in 1995, and an MFA from Transart Institute, Berlin, in 2010.
Drawing on the city and its collective memory, within a backdrop of economic globalisation, migration, state power and fragmented histories, she activates the dysfunctional, the sorrowful, the futile and the funny. The sculptural installations often stand as inconvenient witnesses, amplifying a perpetual discomfort and scepticism from the perspective of both observer and participant.
