girl talk with Huda Z
We recently had the pleasure of interviewing Huda Z! Huda is a Desi Muslim artist and writer for Affinity Magazine. Her art has a unique style, and while sometimes light hearted, sends thought provoking messages through each image that challenge the expectations of Muslim women and South Asian women alike. Huda’s art can be found at http://instagram.com/aitchzee and her articles at http://affinitymagazine.us/author/aitchzee/
What inspires your art?
I’m highly inspired by the modern day, visibly Muslim women. Most of my inspiration comes from there. That, and my identity as a Muslim and South Asian, and the positive and negative aspects of our community and culture.
Which piece is your favorite?
I've got many favourites, but let's see. I love my larki gang illustrations and your average dulhan drawings the most.
What are you currently working on?
The regular. I'm always looking for inspirational stories and women I could present in the language of illustration. I'm also hoping to gather new ideas and do something different and out of the ordinary. Let's see what I come across.
Who are your artistic inspirations?
Oh, where do I even start? There's Naseema, the curator of moosleemargh. There's Huda of @yesimhotinthis, there's Asma of @mvzlamic. Shehzil Malik, Mahoor Jamal and Fatemah Baig are also some of my favorites. There are many others as well. The list just goes on and on.
Were you into art growing up? What was it that introduced you to the world of art?
I have been drawing for as long as I can remember. I've never been exceptionally great at it, neither do I consider myself so at this point. But I have been drawing on different mediums for very long. From drawing on my mum's bedroom wall with her lipsticks to sketch books filled with confusingly, haphazardly drawn lines to adobe illustrator's digital canvas, I've done it all.
Have you ever faced any struggles or rejection with both holding a Desi Muslim identity and being an artist/writer?
I've faced quite a few problems regarding gender roles in the Desi community and as an artist, but nothing I couldn't handle. The trick is to talk about whatever is bothering you. Quiet grieving wouldn't do any good in any situation. I have been told off for many, many things and views I've held, but patiently sticking to what I was sure was right and constantly advocating in small and big situations has helped significantly.
Do you have a career in art and writing/plan on pursuing one, or are they hobbies for you?
I want to pursue writing as a career, if God wills. But as for art, I'm still not sure. I have other interests as well and I love stem subjects too. I'm probably not going to continue as a professional artist, but I'll keep making art because over time; it's proved to be very therapeutic for me.
