Maryam is an artist and maker living and working in Maryland — multi-passionate by nature, with a hard time saying no to a new surface, material, or technique. She paints on canvas, wood, fabric, and just about anything else that holds still long enough. That same restless curiosity is what led her to pick up a laser cutter and start designing personalized jewelry, keepsakes, and gifts — turning someone's name, date, or story into a piece they'll actually keep. She's an immigrant artist whose broader creative practice explores identity, displacement, and belonging — themes that show up quietly in how she approaches every piece she makes, whether it's a painting or a custom-engraved necklace.
