Join us for The Traffic Becomes Us, a solo exhibition by Ghazi Sikander Mirza at Alliance Française de Karachi.

 

In this hauntingly poetic body of work, Mirza transforms the chaos of urban traffic into a surreal meditation on time, myth, and collective memory. Through oil paintings, ballpoint drawings, and installations, he weaves together vehicles, crowds, and mythic creatures into powerful scenes of motion and stillness.

 

🗓️ July 24–27, 2025

📍 Gallery at Alliance Française de Karachi

🕒 Opening reception: July 24, 6:00 PM

 

Step into a world where the ordinary collides with the fantastical — where the traffic doesn’t just move around us, but becomes us.

Free Live Concert with French Musician Thibault Cauvin - At alliance Française de Karachi

Thibault Cauvin is much more than just a guitarist: his concerts are timeless moments of grace and rare poetry, where he magically draws in anyone who lends an ear.

At the age of twenty he was a prodigy with 36 major international prizes, the Federer of the guitar, the indomitable virtuoso. Then for fifteen years he was on the road, touring; a nomad, with no home or ties, guided by the stages of the world - over a thousand performances in nearly 130 countries - his classical guitar took on the colours of freedom and other lands. The insatiable adventurer that he is, he goes on to multiply his atypical duos and unlikely encounters, his unique personality becoming ever more sculpted, his inspirations constantly enriched.

Thibault also loves words and has a passion for storytelling. On stage, he tells stories; mesmerizing and inviting everyone into the depths of their dreams.

Don't miss this exceptional evening!
