Shaheen Bagh by Mohd. Intiyaz

Mohd. Intiyaz is a visual artist originally from Jharkhand who migrated to Delhi due to unrest and uncertainty. In Delhi, he earned an MFA in Painting from Jamia Millia Islamia University. In 2018, his work was featured at the Kochi Muziris Student Biennale, and he was selected as a resident artist for the prestigious Khoj Peers program in 2019. In the following years, he was a resident artist with Art for Change, 1Shantiroad, and ART4all.

Mohd. Intiyaz's work is deeply personal, focusing on his firsthand experiences of migration and marginalization. His art often reflects his core memories and everyday occurrences in his neighborhood, highlighting a sometimes uncomfortable reality.
