Born in London, artist and educator Rhoda Fisher moved to Qatar in 2014. She works in a variety of media including painting, printing and drawing. She graduated in a Foundation degree in Fine Arts and practices at Byam Shaw Central, St Martins in 2007 and continued her studies into education.

Focusing on body of work explores Black British Women in history.
Her deliberate use of a black gridded background is directly representational of her theme. The margins and marginalisation project to bring awareness to the social, cultural and racial stereotypes of black women that are embedded in world history and are a direct result of the transatlantic slave trade.
