Lala Rukh is a feminist activist artist from Pakistan. Lala Rukh’s drawings and photographic works are
considered to be amongst the pioneering works of the South Asian minimalist tradition. These drawings
are inspired directly from an observation of nature and in particular could be best described as meditations
on the horizon line. The use of the horizon line in the drawings is a way to bring to the fore the binding relationship of the body to history and landscape.
