Sadequain Naqqash
“People ask why I don’t paint flowers, butterflies, and landscapes? I tell them that I seek the truth and I am after reality.
I am not inspired by someone posing against the backdrop of roses in a vase or pink curtains. What inspires me is a person who has gone hungry for hours and is struggling for survival.
The expression that lights his face at the end of the day when he has finally found some scraps, that is what touches me. I am a painter of the expression of reality.”
