““Revivify” is a whimsical yet emotional exploration of how trauma reshapes identity, told through the story of Darjeel, a once-proud general whose head is replaced by a teapot. As he journeys to recover what he’s lost, he begins to understand that healing isn’t about returning to who you were, but discovering who you can become. Through metaphor and fantasy, this project reflects the disorientation of sudden change and the quiet power of rebuilding after loss.”

My name is Zainab Ali and I am an illustrator. I create digital and traditional work; with my favorite being my Paper-cut pieces, oriented towards children’s book designs. I’m a student of OCAD University, finishing my illustration degree in June. I hope my work will be able to reach a wide audience that can connect to and enjoy my art. Let’s work together!
