About the Artist

Fahmida Harris

My art journey started many years ago when I was young. 

Since then, I have engaged in many forms of creative activities such as scrapbooking, decoupage, mosaics, card-making, gardening, stone painting, etc. In 2010 I started learning how to do oil and acrylic painting with the legendary Boeta Achmat Soni and I haven’t looked back since.

As a physiotherapist specializing in mental health, I believe that art forms an important part of mental wellbeing. My love for art and creative activity, coupled with my knowledge and experience, therefore allows me to promote health whilst giving back to my community. I offer painting workshops for adults and kids and have also sold a few of my artworks. My painting is my happy place, and I am hoping that my artwork currently on exhibition at the Islamic Art Gallery serves as an inspiration to others.
