ALI KARIMI WAS BORN IN TANDO MOHAMMAD KHAN, SINDH, PAKISTAN. HE GRADUATED IN 2013 FROM NATIONAL COLLEGE OF ARTS, LAHORE. HE EXPLAINS THAT ART HAS ALWAYS BEEN PART OF HIS FAMILY HISTORY, BECAUSE SOME OF HIS ANCESTORS WERE SUFI POETS, BUT HIS INTEREST IN VISUAL ART STARTED LATER. FROM 2002 TO 2009 HE WORKED AT THE SINDHOLOGY MUSEUM IN JAMSHORO, MAKING SCULPTURES AND SOME OTHER WORKS FOR THE MUSEUM. DURING THOSE YEARS, ALI KARIMI UNDERSTOOD THAT HE WANTED TO HAVE ACADEMIC TRAINING AND LEFT THE JOB TO ENTER NCA LAHORE. HE STILL WORKS ON DRAWING, BUT AFTER HIS STUDIES, HE STARTED COMBINING IT WITH MINIATURE PAINTINGS.
