Response to Shahzia Sikander

When I went to the Shahzia Sikander exhibition at the MCA with Alison a couple of weeks ago, I said I was going to do a ‘response’ to the work. There were a lot of images with the pink backgrounds, so I started there. Then I did some stencilling in white, then some Prismacolour trailing fronds (for want of a better word). Then I used some acrylic and marbing gel transparent bits, then back with the Prismacolours. I think it might be finished now.
This effort will come in handy, because I have booked with two friends to go to a stencilling workshop at the MCA inspired by the work of Shahzia Sikander. Follow the link and you can read about it. We’ve also booked in for Dr Sketchy’s Anti-art school, where art meets cabaret, also at the MCA. Sounds like fun!
