About
Khadija Aziz is a Toronto-based textile artist and educator. Her specialization in textile arts is needlework, including beading and South Asian embroidery. She marries these slow hand-craft techniques with the immediate and chance-based outcomes of digital manipulation methods using a photo scanner. Her art has been exhibited in Canada, the USA, Australia, and Austria, and received recognition through awards from Craft Ontario (2025, 2020, 2019) and the Surface Design Association (2020). Khadija’s art has also been published in magazines, books, and conference papers in Canada (Canadian Craft Federation, 2020 and 2021; UPPERCASE Magazine, 2021; and more), the USA (the Surface Design Journal, 2020), and Prague (TEXTile Manifestos, 2022).
