Humaira Abid’s creates carved wood sculptures, often incorporating elements of miniature painting and installation, examining the stigma that women feel over natural, social and cultural issues.

Abid believes that art should inspire humor and surprise, and evoke wonder, a great starting point for conversation when you take your seat at this Director’s Table event.
