Mehreen Asif Zuberi's paintings opened at rohtas gallery on this week, titled as 'wide open'. Mehreen said that 'Open wide' is a work interprets on multiple levels and exploration of pleasure as a consequence of pain and vice versa. After viewed this paintings, one forms the impression that the painter is depicting the procedure of dental surgery, for paintings portray an open mouth that is being operated upon with surgical instruments by gloved-hands of a surgeon. She told that the hands used for surgery are alien hands that compel us to commit a crime against our will. There are political connotations of her paintings, that are a political force to manipulates and exploits human beings. Mehreen uses Vassli as a medium for her paintings, is a meticulous painter, whose work is unique in every sense of the world.
