Professor Bashir Ahmad bears a strong conviction that peace can be achieved through a perpetual and concerted drive against spread of violence, cruelty, terrorism and war. In the raging environment of unpredictable global politics, saving even a few lives through his campaign for peace would be a victorious achievement. A believer of change, Bashir feels that a consistent struggle will eventually alter the state of brutal worldwide hostility into universal cohesion regardless of impediments and difficulties. He has given a bold voice to his dream for peace through vivid works of art that bear strong expression. The striking representation of the aftermath of war through unique forms and material portrays convincing perception. Paintings with bold motifs and expressive colors are a spontaneous response to the antagonizing consequences of war, while the sculptures, owing to their extraordinary shapes, textures and colors, are even more communicative and simulate the bizarre effects of war on living creatures. These delicately molded figurines and statuettes also effectively convey the subtle message of peace through rich patinas and soft hues.
