When Allah takes away something, he definitely gives something special in return. Today I would like to share my story with you. My name is Aliza Munim Kazi. I am deaf by birth. But gifted with extra talent and everything. I never took my hearing or speaking disability as my weakness. Instead I proved to be one of the strongest women ever. And of course my parents played an important role in instilling confidence in me. The struggles and hardships they have gone through cannot be put into simple words.
I am now happily married to the man who is also hearing impaired but equally talented – Munim Kazi. He secured the highest position in Indus valley in textile designing and is now working as a head fashion designer at a reputable organization.
My dream is to become a famous artist of Pakistan for which I am working really hard. I participated in any competition which I found on Facebook. I am also been nominated in an exhibition held at Grandeur Art Gallery and many other exhibitions.
One thing that has kept me motivated throughout was that art has no language and barriers, if one is good at it, he can do it despite any kind of hurdles and limitations. For people sky is the limit, for me, I can go limitless through my art. I run my Facebook page as well The World of Art in which I display the beauty of My Art which is loved by everyone in my surroundings.
Also participated in HSY’s Competition and he was drooled over by my paintings. Recently went to parliament house Islamabad to receive an award of “KHADIJA TUL QUBRA” it was an honoured to be there. I have the aim to empower women with disabilities specially Deaf women by supporting them to become a valuable member of the society.
I also want to support deaf women to start their business and earn a living for themselves and their family.
So this prestigious platform means a lot for me, through which I can display and present my work to the world.
“DEAF CAN DO ANYTHING”
