My Angels My Angels
Dreams Love and Relations
from the eye of an artist.

Wow!! That was my expression
when I entered into thesis display hall at NCS Karachi. The work on display at the North City School of Art is anything but the work of this upcoming
artist,
Naveed
Siddiqui is amazing. His creative work on wooden panels
is one of the first striking pieces
when I entered in the school.
Fears and uncertainty in relations emanates in the
work produced by the artist. His work was a personal statement. He took a
cue from his life and expressed his feelings in a fanciful manner. The way he
showed his dreams, love and a fear of uncertainty in relations, proved that imagination
has no limits.
Naveed said: We have some relations
in our life which have no significant recognition in our society but somehow
those are the most considerable than anyone, and for me, those are the best I have. In other words you can call them “Spiritual
Relations.” In these art pieces I tried to
portray my relationship with my loved ones and to express visually what these
people mean to me.
The tagline of thesis attracted me a
lot “My Angels My Angels”. For paintings, Naveed used oil on wood. He designed typical wall hanging painting style in standing form
and divided paintings into different levels so that they could be tried to be
understood through a particular angle which I found very interesting.
When I asked Naveed that why you chose angels and wings? He answered,
I used angels and wings because they are the sign of purity and freedom which I
found in some of incredible relations I have in my life.
Including me other guests have also commented effusively in the guest book.
