Art Portfolio
At the heart of my artistic pursuit is the creation of works that navigate the intersection of humanity, sustainability, and equity. Residing in Northern Virginia, with my origins rooted in Bangladesh, I am committed to utilizing my artistic platform to shape a more hopeful future for generations to come.
