Talpur is a graduate of the NCA in Lahore. The images in this series are derived from the Badshahnama. The artist plays with the imagery of the sliding puzzle which has the option of creating, dismantling and recreating images, to comment on the vulnerability of the general populace who are manipulated by the media and politicians, just as the Mughals were by the British.
