We were lucky to catch up with Md Sazid Ul Haque recently and have shared our conversation below.

Md Sazid Ul, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Did you always know you wanted to pursue a creative or artistic career? When did you first know?

I was an art lover from very early age. Although, I did not know how to draw something in my childhood. I always looked the beautiful wall paintings of my primary school. In my college, I met a friend of mine who introduced me camera. The hunger of not being able to draw as a child stirred from within me again. I was introduced to digital photography. Just to stay on the creative track, I enrolled in fashion design at university. But I started devoting more time to my photography and art related projects. I loved lifestyle, street type photography the most. In one critique session at university I saw the work of a designer where he was telling a story through his collection. I started to discover fashion in a new way for the first time. The urge to work started in me. I decided after undergrad I would start my own fashion line. But my friend Onamika said “Let’s start a line together”. In my head then it seemed that we are always more powerful than I. We started fashion line ” SAZID & ONAMIKA” back in 2017.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
