Anila Quayyum Agha: Flourishing Patterns presents a large-scale light installation, steel sculpture, and intricate works on paper by internationally renowned artist Anila Quayuum Agha. Agha, a Pakistani-American multimedia artist, explores renewed imaginings of traditional arabesque and geometric motifs inspired by Islamic architecture and design, which yield flourishing forms of light and shadow – patterning that is awe-inspiring.
