Sumera Murtaza, 27 - a photo on Flickriver

Sumera Murtaza, 27

            Sumera, from Hunza, studied Architecture at the National University Of Science & Technology in Islamabad. She also studied abroad in the US and Turkey. She has been working on the wall for just over a year. Currently, she is working with the drainage investigation team to understand its issues and is also creating a virtual plan of the original Mughal drainage system.

“I came to work on this project to give something back to the community. I think we can learn techniques from this wall which we can apply to today’s architecture. The techniques the Mughal’s used can help us create an architecure with very little environmental impact. 

“Even with this restoration the wall will continue to deteriorate but ageing is fine. We have to accept it.”

“Our heritage gives us a sense of identity. We own this thing and we want to keep it alive.”
