Artist's Statement

My journey started so many years ago about love. IS LOVE DIVINE? What is the core ― Heart?
Why are we getting away from love? We are here because of love, who are we when love is everywhere?

I try to develop highly crafted work, In this perspective, I try to expose the truth of what we couldn't see or sometimes we couldn't understand, that experiment with painterly techniques to expose atmospheric, dreams, feelings, emotions, issues, like define mannerism.

I am interested in history, civilizations that once inhabited different parts of the world, particularly imaging the hidden truth in excavated remains in our life.

In front of me the human body is a replica of human society, I think the human body is such a fascinating form, it is complex both in its physical and as a thematic concern.

The body , which is core to performing everyday functions, keeps doing its tasks even most of the time without our conscious knowledge, While it goes through various emotional and spiritual stresses.

The figurative works I have produced perhaps are glimpses of those moments it goes through.

Bio

Muhammad Khan was born in Pakistan. Currently, he lives and works in Helsinki, Finland. He graduated from the National College of Arts, Lahore, Pakistan, in 2005. Khan has been working in the field of visual arts for the past 17 years. His work is exhibited widely in solo and group shows internationally and nationally.

Khan works in a variety of genres and techniques, He would love the watercolor wash technique. He is gradually discovering the possibilities of constructing the images by adding thin layers of color and rendering them with dots, like collages with tiny brushes. I guess in that way the formal aspects of the work become important for him. which present realistically depicted subjects in the surreal against backdrops of powerful color. He works in all classic traditional and contemporary mediums.

His endless quest to discover and fight against the odds never ends, and one would easily spot that struggle in his work. He always tries to depict the whole pageant of man’s triumphal progress, past, present, and future with generosity in his work. His work defines his existence. He has always had a passion for developing or bringing out what our “contemporary” society seems to have lost.

His solo and group exhibitions have been displayed from 2003 to 2022 in different art galleries & art fairs in Europe and Asian platforms.

Khan's artistic practice through artist residencies abroad, in Spain, and Pakistan. His teaching expertise is strong and vast.
