Bushra Owais

As an artist, I bring a diverse background in fine art, graphic design, teaching, qualitative research, and illustration to my creative practice. With a bachelor’s degree in fine art, I've cultivated a strong foundation in visual storytelling and composition. My experience as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer has allowed me to create visually compelling artwork, while teaching art and design to high school students has enhanced my ability to communicate complex ideas effectively. As an illustrator, I've contributed to three children's books, showcasing my creativity and storytelling abilities. More recently, I edited the Chokhat (Frame) photobook which was featured at the Dublin Art Book Fair 2023. With a unique perspective as an immigrant woman of color, I bring inclusivity and empathy to my storytelling. I'm excited to contribute my skills and insights to shape the future of this dynamic field.
