AYSHA AKHTAR
Aysha Akhtar is a London-born artist of Pakistani immigrant parents. After spending more than twenty-five years as a neurologist, public health specialist, and military officer, Akhtar has decided to pursue art full-time. She enrolled in an MFA program at the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2024, with a focus on painting. Her art continues as an extension of her prior work as an advocate for social change to create a healthier world, with a focus on the sentience of nature.
Aysha has participated in three solo shows and multiple group shows, including galleries and venues such as Site:Brooklyn, the Transverse Gallery for Contemporary Art, Arts to Heart Project, and the Blanc Gallery in New York.
In 2024, she was selected as one of three emerging women artists to watch by Women in Arts Network. She lives and works in Gaithersburg, Maryland with her husband and three felines.
