Friday Gallery presents House of Spider Silk, a group exhibition exploring the invisible structures that hold us: the quiet architectures of body, land, ritual, and memory. Curated with Muzzumil Ruheel.

works by:

Farida Batool / Architectures of Land
Naiza Khan / Architectures of Absence
Sara Khan / Architectures of Becoming
Kishwar Kiani / Architectures of Mind
Seher Naveed / Architectures of Control
Risham Hosain Syed / Architectures of Memory
Masooma Syed / Pocket Architectures

Not everything that hold us is visible. Some structures live in memory and ritual. Some in body and land. Some in the spaces we move through without noticing, and the intimate objects we carry close. We inherit them before we can name them.

Curated with Muzzumil Ruheel, House of Spidersilk brings together artists exploring the tender forces that bind, bond, and sustain us. The works move between intimate and collective forms of holding, with precise and gestural explorations of line, boundary, perception, and form. The artists share a language of restraint, intention, and attention: asking us to slow down, look deeper, and look beneath.

Weaving across the exhibition is an unspoken thread: the fragile space between being held and being bound. Too little and we drift untethered. Too much and we can’t breathe. Every attachment has a price. The question is how much we are willing to give.
