Rabia Zuberi has been one of the leaders of Modern Art in Pakistan with her brilliant work on themes like human anatomy, gender issues, modernity, humanism, and peace.
She expressed abstract thought and feeling in form.
In the ’70s, she began to research the human anatomy working with a simplified form that gave reference to abstraction.
She had created dynamic works which rotate on humanist-based ideas, with media like fiber, terracotta, and metal to name a few.
