Shalalae Jamil
Visual Arts Lecture Series (VALS)—Fall 2024
Shalalae Jamil was born and raised in Pakistan and educated at Bennington College, USA and at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, USA. Currently based in Karachi, Pakistan, she uses photography, film, video, installation and elements of performance to continually investigate how perception and meaning are altered by the shifting parameters of private and public space. Sometimes poetic, but often straightforward, her work uses the generic to address unspoken aspects of shared experience.
