Forced to serve in the Afghan army at 16, Afghan artist Salim Attaie from Kabul believes luck has mostly been in his favour. Through this exhibition I want to tell the world that bloodshed is not the only thing there. Lekin iski khoobsurati ke bare mein, culture, art aur music ke bare mei zyada likhiye,” says Attaie, who is also the curator of the show. The once popular central market, the Char Chatta (four-sided) Bazaar of Kabul, appears to have been brought to life again in another frame. Nabi, on the contrary, shows the mighty mountainous terrains of Afghanistan enveloped by its hot and humid temperatures.
