Ghafar Afridi

Pakistan, 1983

BiographyI am a graduate of National College of Arts, Lahore. I belong to Khyber Agency, FATA, one of the darker outskirts of Pakistan. where the majority is illiterate and a gun culture flourishes that allow people to play with guns as an evidence of their manliness. But in this brute civilization there are some who are educated, who take on as their duty to set people free to a bright future through their life and work. I consider these people heroic, and would like to follow their example in hope that through my experiences and achievements in the realm of arts I can also try to invite compassion for the state of people of my area.
