A British Asian Artist, Amina Asari's works are placed at Buckingham Palace and she likes to bridge the gap between East and West in Art.

Her artwork takes a critical view of personalities, social justice and cultural issues in human figures on canvases. There is a figurative focus that gives more curb over others and it is personifying away from photographic manner in paintings. In her work, she deconstruct the global dream, seasoning, music and dance, ideology, reality, social justice and adult culture in a striving manner to vivid imagination from the Artist's perception.

Having engaged subjects as diverse as the impressionism yet realism and freestyle movement, to absorb all the influence that the West and East has to offer, her work reproduces familiar visual signs, arranging them into new conceptually layered pigments in oils and dry pastels outlining.

Amina Ansari has painted portraits, landscapes and abtract paintings. Some of them are reflective of culture. One of her work, Afghan Refugee kids catches the despair and misery of the uprooted children at a Mohajir Camp. At the same time the portraits of six children show glimmer of hope and smile, indicating their courage.
