Fadilah reflects on her experiences navigating life, study, and the industry of design & art as a woman of colour, and establishing herself as a digital artist over the past decade.
About Fadilah:
Fadilah is a Digital Artist based in Sydney, Australia and has been practicing her craft for over 10 years. Her work is a window into her experience as a female, muslim first-generation migrant living in suburban Australia. First and foremost, she is inspired by community.
Her work explores the intersectionality of faith, culture and gender through a predominantly western lens. The emergence of the "third culture" is a recurring theme in her art as it explores the dichotomy of the East and West and how it has influenced her upbringing and her art.
She strives to use her work to give a voice to people in marginalised communities such as herself and many of her generation who share her experiences.
