We are excited to bring the captivating work of @saniebokhari back to the gallery in our forthcoming all-female group exhibition ‘The River Never Runs Dry’!

Sanié Bokhari (b. 1991, Lahore, Pakistan) is a painter and sculptor based in Brooklyn, NY. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Painting from the National College of Arts, Lahore, and an MFA in Painting from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD).

Her work examines the complex roles of women in colonial-era South Asia and their portrayal in miniature painting, reimagining these themes in a contemporary context. She explores the intersection of tradition and modernity, reflecting on the tension between analog processes and the influence of AI. Her figures sometimes float on traditional rugs to symbolize their roots, embodying transformation and hybridity.

‘The River Never Runs Dry’ opens on March 1 from 6-8 PM, the first day of Women’s Month. Be sure to join us in person!
