An illustrator and printmaker from Karachi, now based in Toronto. Maliha draws people, food, and things from everyday life, plus “the stuff swimming around in (her) head.” She likes how drawing is a way to play with ideas that are silly or serious (or both). It’s how she slows down, daydreams, and learns more about things.
Gino believes the customer deserves to feel empowered by their purchases, knowing they can trust the brand to operate ethically while supporting a community they belong to or wish to support. He describes connection as his north star and collaboration is the space craft.
