Anila Quayyum Agha (b. Lahore, Pakistan, 1965) is an internationally acclaimed Pakistani-American artist, recognized for her award-winning large-scale immersive installations. In 2019, her work was included in She Persists at the Venice Biennale. Her immersive installations use light and shadow inspired by Islamic architecture to convey socio-cultural and gender-related issues within contemporary societies. This marks the first showing of Quayyum Agha’s work in Canada.
