Since 2015, I have been researching upon the multidimensional nature of Zoroastrian migration stories via the Arabian Sea and comparing them with archaeological sites within ancestral villages from the coasts of Gujarat and Iran. These paintings are references to photographs taken by Khojeste Mistree published in The Zoroastrian Tapestry (Ed. by   Pheroza Godrej and  Firoza Mistree) which link landscapes at in Iran and Azerbaijan with our understanding of religions and empires.
A Culture of Care was an exhibition curated by Taabir Noorani and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto as a fundraiser for Bulhan Bachao, an organisation aiming to save the Indus river dolphin
