About this listen
A former Criminologist from the University of Cape Town, Aadila grew up in South Africa during the apartheid regime and paints from a deep sense of repressed voice. As such, she is inspired by street art as a powerful voice for social justice and equity. Her abstract expressions represent her perception of the push and pull between struggle, hope, and the ability to rise above.
She studied painting with a professional artist in her hometown and has been painting for over 25 years. In 2000, she moved to Toronto permanently, where she studied at the Toronto School of Art and
established her painting practice. Her work has been sold in North America, Australia, the U.K., and South Africa.
She recently completed a large-scale corporate commission for The Daniels Corporation of two over-sized pieces, measuring 14ft x 8ft each. The artwork is permanently installed in the lobby of The
Lighthouse East Tower in Toronto.
