Fats (Fathima) is an Indian-Canadian artist born and raised in the Middle East. Her work, primarily made up of images taken from nature, is a study of symbols and semiotics and our drive to make sense of the world through mythology, folklore and storytelling. A 3rd culture kid who has spent most of her life torn between religious and cultural value systems and boxes, Fats looks to story-telling for universal messages that resonate across borders and categories.
