Ayqa Khan

The sense of right and sense of ease that can be found in solidarity permeates Ayqa Khan’s work—we are reminded to be ourselves, to find solace in family, and to be courageous in the seemingly never-ending fight against injustice.

Queer South Asian Diasporic Futurism:

Today, The Turmeric Project presents Ayqa Khan, a visual artist out of New York who discusses queer futures, creating and recreating, and relating to family as a queer South Asian artist. Thank you so much to Ayqa for sharing her space, art, and thoughts with us!

Queer South Asian Americans are so real, so beautiful, so brave and creative. Like and follow us at the Turmeric Project as we explore how queer South Asian Americans live, create, heal, and make their own worlds.
