Muhammad Zeeshan boldly fuses Persian and Mughal traditions with Renaissance and contemporary elements, creating striking works that expose the powerful dance between beauty, desire, and authority. Rich with romance, politics, and imagination, these paintings invite us into a world where history is reimagined and meaning continually transforms before our eyes. 

His recent series reimagine visual fragmets drawn from Persian and Mughal miniature traditions alongside elements from renaissance paintings. By bringing together imagery from these distinct regions and periods, Zeeshan explores how aesthetics have long been intertwined with systems of power, where art history itself carries traces of rivalry, conquest, and cultural negotiation. 

The work He Is My Witch, is title inspired by Kip Tyler's song She Is My Witch, extends this dialogue between past and present. The title also alludes to the idea of power as a spell, where enchantment, desire, and control coexist, shaping both personal and political relationships. By  borrowing and rearranging classical imagery, he reflects on how meaning shifts when viewed through different lenses, and how relationships are constantly redefined by the gaze of others. Romanticism runs quietly through Zeeshan's work, a longing for beauty and emotional depth that coexists with socio-political undercurrents. Zeeshan sees these paintings as meditations on how affection, devotion, and authority intertwine how beauty can both reveal and disguise power. 

Through the meticulous language of miniature painting, he navigates between personal and collective memory, reality and imagination. Each image becomes a meeting point of love and politics, myth and history a space where power and tenderness coexist, and where meaning is always open to transformation.
