"Temple of Forgetting" by Sachal Rizvi

Sachal Rizvi is a Lahore-based architect, illustrator, and artist. He studied Architecture at the National College of Arts, Lahore, and Contemporary Arts at the Estonian Academy of Arts, Tallinn.

His practice uses spontaneity, improvisation, and drawing as a meditative inquiry into lived experience, temporality, imagination, and self-becoming. Through deliberate slowness, repetition, and intuitive geometry, Sachal traces shifting mental and emotional states amid the speed of contemporary visual culture.

His work asks how meaning emerges through practice, attention, and the body’s quiet knowledge. He has exhibited in Pakistan and Europe, including Norway, Estonia, and Germany, alongside professional work in architecture, film, illustration, and design.

For collectors, Sachal Rizvi’s work offers contemplative drawing, architectural sensitivity, and a refined contemporary language of intuition.
