Khalil Chishtee and Ruby Chishti are established international artists. Husband and wife, Pakistani émigrés to Sacramento now living in the Bay Area, they have shown individually and in group shows regionally and worldwide.
Duet continues their previous practices as artists but integrates them into a unique visual dialogue: “a song of life sung together,” Ruby Chishti explains; “that is why it is called “Duet.” Echoing the events of their lives, Duet employs the artists’ signature media and processes.
For Duet his forms occupy and respond to the spaces of the CCAS galleries left by Ruby’s art – the ceiling and walls. His more airy and ephemeral installation interfaces with her work and reflects the shared experiences of their lives. Ruby’s work is displayed at CCAS on the floor and thus shares the same ground as the viewer. Warm, tender, and more earthly than Khalil’s, her art is made of a wide range of evocative materials, including twigs, cast-off scraps of cloth, and feminine napkins tied and stitched into figures of varying scale, including small ones linked to the history of doll making in India and Pakistan.
