Amira Alamary

Amira Alamary is a Black Muslim woman who had to sacrificed so much and pushed boundaries before she was able to become a go to colleague for other immigrant artists. “I used to scribble on papers as a child," says Alamary, recalling how she discovered her talent. "I'd never realized that art was my thing until a friend in high school advised me to go to art school after she observed that my scribbles were actually sketched pieces of art.”
