Sarah Kazmi (PK)
Sarah Kazmi (b.1990 Pakistan) is an interdisciplinary artist and a writer who lives and works between Oslo and Karachi. Her artistic practice moves across research and visual production, observing the relationship between food, language and politics. She works with the medium of writing where her texts are visual, rhythmic and performative; often conveyed through a variety of disciplines, which includes sound pieces, video, installations and performance. She is working towards her first solo exhibition titled "Cooking, time?" at the Intercultural Museum in Oslo, 2024. Alongside her artistic practice, Kazmi does policy advocacy for Verdensrommet; an artist-powered mutual support network by/for immigrant artists based in Norway.
“Recipe of/for a Dream”, is an experimental play of scans, hands, photographs and text, recited live in two languages. Performed on a table, it looks specifically at Norwegian language learning textbooks as archives, to involve politics of memory and materiality, to problematize dominant histories and strategies of representation.
