Ms Qureshi advises aspiring migrant artists to never give up on their work. Instead, she says artists should embrace the reality of a new place and capture it through their work.
Ms Qureshi was selected for the Melbourne Art Trams project, a part of the Melbourne International Arts Festival. Every year, artists from different backgrounds are selected to transform trams into a moving canvass with their artwork.
"Melbourne is such a place that wholeheartedly welcomes all artists and their work," Ms Qureshi, who specialises in the South Asian miniature painting, told SBS Hindi.
Ms Qureshi's artwork 'layers of red', which she finished in 2004, featured on tram ID 5111 in 2019. She was among the six other artists selected for the project. Her artwork is also part of the National Gallery of Victoria.
"The rich red colour made the tram highly visible and appealing, and an eye-catching backdrop for selfies too," Ms Qureshi added.
"My red floral pattern artwork on a Melbourne tram celebrates the vibrancy and richness of Melbourne's cultural life," she added.
