"Mahwish Chishty combines new media and conceptual work with materials and techniques of South Asian art and craft traditions." from www.mahachishty.com

I met Mahwish in 2015/16 when she and my 200 students from Maplewood High School put on an exhibit at the Red Arrow Gallery in East Nashville. https://nashvillearts.com/2016/03/maplewood-high-school-students-change-perceptions-through-art/

She has exhibited her work around the world and is currently planning a project that will show in Chicago, India, and Pakistan.

In addition to her website, this episode of Drone Futures about her and her work is fantastic. https://lnns.co/s6pTi3SOVC1 Drone Futures is hosted by Michael Richardson, Senior Research Fellow at the University of New South Wales, whose research examines the intersection of war, culture, and technology.
