Considering the world’s change in the past two years, Alia Hussain Lootah chose to show the personal
side of human experience during the pandemic. Using pen and paper, the artist’s drawings show
chaotic paths but reflect the shape of disturbances that we experienced during that period at the
personal and societal levels. These paths were turned into mini sculptures that embodied the
turbulent lines. However, these lines are now at peace. Experiences become diverse and turn glossy
black to reflect the effect of the darkness left by the pandemic.
