Lujane Vaqar Pagganwala is a multidisciplinary artist, with a profound affinity towards towers, structures, ladders and the like. She investigates the phenomenology of space, as an idea and as a physical entity. Pagganwala takes inspiration from childhood spaces as well as urban topographies to create hybrid realities. These spaces are playful, layered and confrontational. She explores abstract existences on multiple spatio-temporal planes at once, and our omnipresent transience across these spaces. How might one elucidate the study of Entanglement within and in relation to the discourse of the Self?
The interactive nature of her practice layers the experiences into an ever-lasting loop of curiosities and becomings. A co-existence of amalgamated energies in flux – a Flash Space, as she refers to them as.
Spatial consciousness gives way to an undulating parachronism
And we were left
As was the un-cracking paint
On walls built for surrender
The voyeurism plagued by the curtain.
