Meesha Shafi

Meesha Shafi is an incredible artist – she’s a singer, songwriter, actor, and an interior decorating wizard. I drew this illustration in bright, bold colors because I see how Meesha surrounds herself by joyous colors and I think they capture her vibrant personality.

Meesha’s art is inspiring to me, and so is her conviction to speak truth to power. Meesha has paved the way for women in Pakistan to speak out about harassment and fight to hold harassers accountable in the court of law no matter how powerful they may be. Through her own legal battle, she and her legal team have been fighting for change in Pakistan’s harassment laws.

It’s important to recognize the great personal cost at which Meesha is fighting for a safer future for all women. Meesha has the support, respect and admiration of countless women who are with her on this journey.
