| Risham Hosain Syed (@rishamsyed) is a Lahore-based artist and educator.

Her exhibition “Destiny Fractured,” currently on view at the Newark Museum of Art, explores the relationships between colonialism, capitalism, and climate change. Syed juxtaposes scenes and stories of climate impacts in contemporary Pakistan with objects and 19th century American landscape paintings from the Museum’s collection. Syed invites us reflect on our complex relationship with nature and history and to imagine a better path forward.
