Shazia Ahmad

Shazia Ahmad (she/her) is a half-Pakistani, half-Chilean painter and printmaker living in Brossard, Québec.

She is the recipient of several Canada Council for the Arts and City of St. John’s grants, and was the 2021-22 Don Wright Scholar at St. Michael’s Printshop in St. John’s, NL. She is currently an artist-in-residence at Galerie JANO et studios.
