Aunties with Deadly Stare is the first solo visual art presentation by the Los Angeles based political strategist, storyteller and artist Tanzila “Taz” Ahmed. The exhibition features paintings from her Aunties with Deadly Stare series, which she created over the course of the pandemic. The series was inspired by a 2016 anti-Muslim hate crime when two older women were kicked off of an airplane because of how the flight attendants were scared by their stare. These aunties had a stare so powerful it elicited a terrorist threat.
