This exhibition examined the relationship between a painting and architectural practice inspired by Islamic architecture in Canada and the US. Featuring the work of Pakistani-American painter Lubna Agha and Egyptian-Canadian architect Sharif Senebel, the exhibition aspired to show the adaptability of Muslim ritual practices and ultimately, to dispel the narratives that have pushed Muslim communities to the margins of Western civil society.
