As part of Lubna Chowdhary's exhibition at PEER (10 September – 20 November 2021) the artist took part in an in-conversation event with artist and writer David Batchelor. The artist-to-artist talk focused on studio practice, process and use of materials as well as ideas around stylistic and cultural influence.
