Sanniah Jabeen
Sanniah is a PhD candidate in the Department of Art History at the University of Toronto. Her doctoral research focuses on textiles from South Asia and particularly the impact of digital printing, machine-replication, and mass-production on modern and contemporary ‘folk’ crafts. Central to her research are questions of how artisans and craft communities respond to changing markets, movements across networks of craft exchange, differing forms of gendered craft labor, textiles as markers of ethnicity and nationality, and concerns over the ‘indigeneity’ of the handmade. For her dissertation, Sanniah is studying the “Ajrak,” a block-printed and resist dyed rectangular cotton textile and looking at its usage as a political tool of representation and its high- fashion appearances amidst global concerns around craft-preservation. This dissertation research is supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the Graduate Expansion Unit at the University of Toronto.
Sanniah has previously worked with UNESCO on projects related to craft conservation, heritage preservation and public engagement with the arts and has also completed curatorial fellowships at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), Islamic Art and Material Cultural Collaborative (IAMCC), The Art Museum at the University of Toronto and the Lahore Biennale Foundation.
