Myra Javaid is a Pakistani-Australian visual artist and multimedia storyteller working across film, painting, digital art and writing, rooted in South Asian cultural memory, hybrid identity, and ecological reconciliation. Her practice explores how heritage, myth and place shape identity and belonging in contemporary post-colonial contexts, with a focus on intergenerational and urban youth narratives.

Working with oral histories from Pakistan, she has directed and produced animations and immersive audio-visual installations, including 1947 Fasadat at the National History Museum in Lahore, which commemorates the mass migration and loss of millions of lives during the Partition of India.

Recently, her work brings cultural context into conversation with ecological urgency, exploring consumption and reconnection with land and water. Her fiction short film Ice cream has screened internationally, and her visual art practice incorporates discarded materials into autobiographical, Indo-Persian-inspired paintings.
