Award-winning Pakistani crystal artist Sara Shakeel has launched her web store, which features some of her most exquisite prints for sale. Sarashakeel.com comprises a selection of 24 prints, bedecked with Sara’s crystal art, which will be available in limited numbers until she reveals her next drop.
“Each picture heals a part of me, and I hope it heals a part of you too,” Sara writes on the website. Available in four sizes, the artworks have been printed on Giclée, are carbon-neutral, and boast luxe, museum-worthy quality. They feature materials such as Hahnemühle Bamboo, which is made from 90% bamboo fibers and 10% cotton, representing naturalness and resource-saving paper production.

Among the highlights are the subway-inspired ‘A Good Looking Ride’, ‘A Fresh Start’ with oranges, the picturesque ‘At The End It Doesn’t Really Matter’, and ‘Wash Your Hands’, emphasizing the importance of the practice in the age of COVID-19. Starting from AED454, the prints are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

“And just like that I made one of my dreams come true! I’ve been longing to have my own web store! Where I could share my thoughts, stories and creations as an artist,” Sara wrote in an Instagram post. “To develop these prints with my style wasn’t an easy task. To create that illusion of sparkles on something that doesn’t shine in real life was a challenge. But after finding my match alongside taking care of the environment, I’ve found the perfect print collection.”
Sara has rolled out 100-200 editions of this first batch of prints and shared a discount code for anyone who subscribed to the website prior to the launch. The artworks will be shipped worldwide. Discover them now.
