Self Reflection Wed 27th Nov 2024
My artwork is about self-reflection, as I wanted to create something personal that others can connect with. I want to recreate my feelings on my own reflection to see if people connect or feel the same about theirs. I wanted to share this idea because I feel most people feel ashamed to be themselves and don’t see their inner beauty but hate it instead. My inspiration for this artwork came from wanting to create a personal project and I wanted to showcase that its okay to have insecurities and not feel confident.

Mussarat Rahman Wed 27th Nov 2024
I am a Bradford Kashmiri artist with 18 years’ experience in delivering publicly funded community projects. My work focuses on developing innovative social action projects, using visual arts, photography, multimedia & holistic tools to facilitate discussion around global issues affecting displaced people across West Yorkshire, empowering culturally excluded communities.
As a woman artist of Pakistani heritage living in Bradford, I represent a significant demographic group in the community. I have created many artworks including a globe selected as part of ‘The World Reimagined’, a national installation of 103 unique globes exploring the history, legacy and future of the Transatlantic Trade in Enslaved Africans through the work of incredible artists. I won the Issachar Fund Art Prize in 2020 on the theme of Gratitude. In 2021, I was a recipient of the Queens Award for voluntary service.
