Musings with artist Ayesha Sultana
Ayesha Sultana
Ayesha Sultana, an artist based in Dhaka, is recognised across the globe. She sets herself apart through her practice that is uncommon in the South Asian context. Her work has been showcased in Kiran Nadar Museum of Art in New Delhi, alongside the works of celebrated Indo-American artist and printmaker Zarina Hashmi, as well as artists Lala Rukh, Prabhavathi Meppayil, and Sumakshi Singh last year. In conversation with The Daily Star, Ayesha sheds light on her artistic journey.
She is hugely inspired by Indian artist Nasreen Mohamedi and Pakistani artist Rashid Rana. Her work is experimental and abstract to a great extent, involving different materials and processes.
