Timeline
Tazeen Qayyum is a Pakistani-born Canadian conceptual artist working in a variety of media including miniature painting, drawing, sculpture, performance, and video.
Her work explores issues of identity, immigration, socio-political conflict, and her Muslim identity.
Born in Karachi, Pakistan, in 1973, Tazeen Qayyum studied miniature painting at the National College of Arts in Lahore, Pakistan, graduating in 1996 with a BFA.
As a response to the 9/11 attacks, Qayyum began using the cockroach as a metaphor to connote the loss of life in the subsequent wars connected to the attacks, as well as fear and misunderstanding of other cultures.
She co-founded Offset Portfolio Centre in 1997, a gallery and resource centre for artists in Pakistan.
Qayyum's work has been shown internationally in solo exhibitions including Miniature Paintings, Gallery Jutner, AIR Program, Vienna, Austria (2000), The Human Dichotomy, Aicon Contemporary (2008), A Holding Pattern at Toronto's Pearson International Airport (2013), (IN) Surge (NT) at the Canvas Gallery, Karachi (2015), Tazeen Qayyum: Descent at Canvas Gallery, Karachi (2018), and Sakoon at Zalucky Contemporary, Totonto (2022).
Qayyum's work has been shown in numerous group exhibitions.
She has also directed performance work including Double Date in 2007 produced by SAVAC (South Asian Visual Arts Collective) at Lennox Contemporary Gallery, Toronto and AKA Gallery, Saskatoon, and A Feast in Exile held in 2009 and produced by VASL Artist's Collective.
Qayyum is married to digital media artist Faisal Anwar and lives in Oakville, Ontario.
These include: Elusive Realities: recent works by Tazeen Qayyum and Sumaira Tazeen, Chawkandi Gallery, Karachi, Pakistan (2008) Art in Review: Farida Batool, Adeela Suleman and Tazeen Qayyum, Aicon Gallery (2009), Veiled: Andrew McPhail, Grace Ndiritu, Tazeen Qayyum, Textile Museum, Toronto (2012), and Beyond Measure: Domesticating Distance, The Robert McLaughlin Gallery, Oshawa, 2015 among others.
While the cockroach first appeared as part of her miniature painting practice, it would evolve into sculpture and installation work including A Holding Pattern, a multi-media piece that was installed at Toronto's Pearson International Airport in 2013.
Qayyum's more recent circular text pieces are performative based and originate from her work with installations of the repeated forms of cockroaches.
Recurring singular phrases written in the Urdu (the artist's mother tongue) are drawn from the centre of the paper or canvas, concentrically moving out.
These performances have been as long as twenty-four hours in duration.
These drawing performances often result in joint pain.
Along with her artistic practice, Qayyum has offered workshops in miniature painting.
Qayyum's drawing based performances include Unvoiced held at the 1st Karachi Biennale, Pakistan in 2017, and 'We do not know who we are where we go’, which was part of the Mixer Project at The Royal Conservatory of Music, Toronto (2016).
