Bio |
Aishath Huda is a visual artist from the Maldives. She investigates the shared experiences of consciousness, embodiment and co-existence in nature. She combines observed and imagined perspectives to create shifts in perceptions in her work that invites viewers to reimagine their relationship with the rest of nature. Her research aims to find ways to transition from a human-centered worldview into a more expansive sense of “we”. She is invested in doing this through and with Water. Huda’s conceptually layered marks reference ecological processes (crevasses forming, shifts in ocean currents, rock formations, and dying corals.)
Huda is currently an M.F.A Art 2023 candidate at the University of Illinois at Chicago. After receiving a BFA in 2016 from China Academy of Art, Hangzhou, she has worked as a teaching artist at the Maldives National University. In 2019, she had a solo exhibition at the National Art Gallery of Maldives, titled The Bird and the Flying Fish. Her work has been shown nationally and internationally including in Barcelona, Sardinia, Zanzibar, Thimphu, Paro, New Delhi, Beijing, Hangzhou, Xi'an and Shanghai. |
