Biography
Umber Majeed is a multidisciplinary visual artist. Her art education in Pakistan, New York, and Lebanon has activated a mapping of her South Asian diasporic cultural hybridity. The humor and lush visuality within the speculative fiction, drawings, collages, and animations seek to make visible the outlines of cultural alienation and systematic violence. Her current projects engage with familial archives to explore specifics of the Pakistani state and urban infrastructure through a feminist lens. She lives and works between New York/USA and Lahore, Pakistan.
