Muhammad Zeeshan was born in 1980 in Mirpurkhan, a city in south eastern Pakistan, and received his BFA in Miniature Painting from the National College of Arts, Lahore, in 2003. The direction he takes with a particular work is heavily determined by the medium in which he is working; however, motifs such as roosters carry across his works and are reminiscent of his time growing up in Pakistan. Additionally, Zeeshan has stated that his artworks tread the thin boundary between found imagery and originality ascribed to any visual that exists. Zeeshan has exhibited internationally across Europe, Asia, Africa, North America and Australia, participating in numerous international museum exhibitions. Recent solo exhibitions include Money Provides, Culture Aspires, Sanat initiative, Karachi (2020), No fight, Be a donkey, Oart Space, Lahore (2019), Serving with White Gloves, Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, Berlin (2019); Art Dubai (2018); Refreshment at Sanat Initiative, Karachi (2017); Contemporary Istanbul (2017); Funkier Than A Mosquito's Twitter at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery (2015); Safar Nama at Canvas Art Gallery, Karachi (2014); and Special 'Siri' Series at Aicon Gallery, New York (2011).
