Turning adversity into opportunity | Muniba Mazari...

Muniba Mazari ( born 3 March 1988) is a Pakistani artist, model, activist, motivational speaker and television host. She uses a wheelchair due to injuries sustained in a car accident at the age of 21 which makes her Pakistan's first wheelchair bound model. She is also the National Ambassador for UN Women Pakistan. She is also a singer and activist.

In 2007, Muniba met with an accident on her way to her hometown, Rahim Yar Khan, where the driver fell asleep and drove the car into a ditch. That accident has made her paraplegic, but despite initial struggles to support her family, has not softened

her spirit for helping others. Along with philanthropic efforts, she has established her brand known as Muniba’s Canvas with

the slogan Let Your Walls Wear Colors. Her medium is acrylics on canvas.

In this talk Muniba shares the heart wrenching story of an incident which changed her life completely - from the bad to the good.

Muniba Mazari is an artist and a writer. She believes in playing with vibrant colors and flawless portrayal of true emotions. Her

work speaks her heart out and is all about people, their expressions, dreams and aspirations.

Although wheel chair bound, her spirit and artistry knows no bounds. In fact, she takes the agony of spinal cord injury as a

challenge and is more determined to express her sentiments through her art work.

While doing her bachelor in fine arts she met a road accident which made her paraplegic. Currently, she is running her brand

by the name ‘Muniba’s Canvas’ with the slogan ‘Let Your Walls Wear Colors’. She is a mix media artist and believes in depicting

the ethnic jewels of her region in an abstract way. Some of her work is purely abstract which depicts the humans’ expressions,

their thoughts and dreams. Her paintings give the message of living life and represent the real personality of the artist.
