Who is Fatima Wojohat?
From the Uncensored Gallery we find:
Fatima Wojohat was 19 when the Taliban retook Afghanistan. After the Taliban imposed restrictions on women she started creating artwork on her smartphone, she is self-taught, and now works with the ArtLords' artivist movement.Shared from -> https://www.indexoncensorship.org/uncensoredgallery/
The illustration focuses on issues surrounding Qatar's hosting of the World Cup, including suppression of workers' and womens' rights.
There is hope though. She says, "The purpose of drawing hearts in my artworks is to be a light in the darkness. I dream my dream my beautiful world because I am a dreamer."
