Zehra Javeri

Zehra Laila Javeri (Urdu: زہرہ لیلی جویری; born on 15 October 1971) is a Pakistani artist.

Javeri (from the family that lent its name to Mumbai's Zaveri Bazar) traces her roots back to Jamnagar, Gujarat, where her ancestors were court jewellers to the Nawabs of Kutch.

"She has incorporated many global themes into her work, especially regarding gender," said Marjorie Husain, a Pakistani critic, 'as she pointed at a painting that was about the Serbian War.

It featured the work of 11 Pakistani artists and "was curated by Islamabad based gallery MyArtWorld and formed part of the larger Aalishan Pakistan trade show to Delhi".

"The highlight of the exhibition was the participation of art icon Satish Gujral who lit the lamp to open the show and also initiated the live painting."
