The Times
24 May 2025 – 21 Sep 2025
The Times is a personal journey through grief after losing her father. Wardah Alam turns to faith, memory, and her Mughal heritage for solace and inspiration. Finding her voice through art, she uses printmaking techniques like etching and aquatint to create beautifully detailed works depicting architecture and decorative features, capturing moments shaped by love, loss, and family bonds.
