"Checklist of an Old Lady" by Beenish Ahmed Saraz

Beenish Ahmed Saraz is a Lahore-based visual artist, born in Tando Jam in 1998 and raised in Hyderabad. She graduated in Painting from the National College of Arts, Lahore, in 2020, and completed an MA in Art and Design Studies from Beaconhouse National University, Lahore, in 2024.

Her practice reflects everyday feminine life, domestic rituals, food, care, responsibility, and the unseen labour embedded within the home. Drawing from a middle-class joint-family experience, she transforms ordinary measurements and spoken terms such as Tarka, Spoonful, Kehwa, and Dozen into visual records of memory, intimacy, and routine.

She has exhibited at O Art Space, Art Chowk Gallery, PNCA, Pak-China Friendship Center, and participated in international residencies and publications.

For collectors, Beenish Ahmed Saraz’s work offers domestic memory, feminine sensitivity, and contemporary cultural depth.
