Anum, whose ancestral roots lie in Balochistan, began her academic journey by earning a Bachelor’s in Accounts from Oxford Brookes University, followed by an MSc in Marketing from the University of Hertfordshire, where she developed strong research and strategic skills. Her career took her through creative roles with organizations like The News International and Daraz, where she honed her communication and creative abilities. As her passion for the arts grew, Anum transitioned into the artistic field, exploring her ancestral roots and storytelling through her work. She has showcased her art in exhibitions such as Anti-Colonial Maps for Lost Lovers in Casablanca (2025), Gravity Art Fest (2025), NRW Together (2024), and Spiritual Reflections in Dubai (2024), and completed a residency with Hic Rosa in 2023. Trained in Indo-Persian Miniature art, Anum holds an M.Phil. from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture (IVS). Her art continues to explore themes of cultural identity, memory, and narrative.
