# Event Details - **Event Name**: Zinnia Naqvi & Shahana Rajani: Island of Strangers at Susan Hobbs Gallery - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 16 Apr, 2026 at 11:00 am – Sat, 23 May, 2026 at 06:00 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: In British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s White Paper strategy on immigration, he warned that without stronger integration “we risk becoming an island of strangers.” Working with found photography and personal memory, Naqvi traces her own experiences with migration, and her relationship, from a very young age, to belonging, and its reduction to a measure of utility: questioning which bodies are valued, which are excluded.                        The Arabic word for universe, alam, and the word for knowledge, ilm, share their origin in the word alamah, a mark. In this exhibition, Rajani explores practices and lineages of drawing and mark-making through which coastal communities in Pakistan remain connected to sacred ecologies of rivers and sea amidst the violence and erasure of infrastructure. Rajani intertwines old and new practices of drawing talismans and making river maps as echoing rituals that protect, invoke and keep alive endangered worlds. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/toronto/zinnia-naqvi-and-shahana-rajani-island-of-strangers-at-susan-hobbs-gallery-tickets/80003176152442 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts, exhibitions - **Slot details of has slots**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: CAD - **Ticket informations**: - ticket_1 — 0.00 CAD - ticket_2 — 0.00 CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Toronto - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: Susan Hobbs Gallery - **lat**: 43.6456408 - **long**: -79.4060387 - **full address**: Susan Hobbs Gallery, 137 Tecumseth St., Toronto, ON M6J 2H2, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Zinnia Naqvi & Shahana Rajani: Island of Strangers at Susan Hobbs Gallery - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/thumb69bae8bd0edab.jpg ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Zinnia Naqvi & Shahana Rajani: Island of Strangers at Susan Hobbs Gallery being held? - **A:** Zinnia Naqvi & Shahana Rajani: Island of Strangers at Susan Hobbs Gallery takes place on Thu, 16 Apr, 2026 at 11:00 am to Sat, 23 May, 2026 at 06:00 pm at Susan Hobbs Gallery, 137 Tecumseth St., Toronto, ON M6J 2H2, Canada. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Zinnia Naqvi & Shahana Rajani: Island of Strangers at Susan Hobbs Gallery? - **A:** Tickets for Zinnia Naqvi & Shahana Rajani: Island of Strangers at Susan Hobbs Gallery are free.
