Maheen Elahi is a Lahore-based visual artist working in contemporary miniature painting. A graduate of the National College of Arts, her practice examines landscape, memory, and liminal space through precise detail and layered imagery. She has exhibited in major galleries in Pakistan and international, contributing to the contemporary evolution of miniature painting.
In gouache on wasli, Maheen Elahi evokes miniature nightscapes born of quiet unmooring. In the stillness after attachment loosens, the work lingers in suspended calm, where shadow softens and breath slows. Within indigo depths, faint glimmers of gold rise gently, as if something unseen is remembering itself.
