Collection: Javaid Joya

Javaid Joya is a Lahore-based visual artist whose practice explores memory, childhood, fantasy, and the emotional weight of contemporary life. He graduated with distinction in BFA Visual Arts from the National College of Arts, Lahore, and completed a Master’s degree in Visual Art and Design from Beaconhouse National University, Lahore.

His work constructs symbolic narratives where innocence is placed against chaos, loss, and social struggle. Through playful yet unsettling imagery, he reflects on childhood not only as a space of imagination, but also as a witness to power, inequality, and transformation.

Javaid has exhibited at O Art Space, Numaish Gah, Haam Gallery, Tagheer Gallery, Full Circle Gallery, Alhamra, Lakir Gallery, Quetta Art Fair, and Ashil Gallery.

For collectors, Javaid Joya’s work offers emotional intensity, narrative depth, and contemporary symbolic power.
