Koshal Hamal’s most important art piece “I am Malala” will be showcased in the exhibition in Vienna. I am Malala” is more like summarization of the book “I am Malala”. The artist has portrayed the skinny Malala like Fasting Siddhartha. The artist talks about the female child education regarding the aim and the vision of Malala Yousafzai who is a Pakistani activist for female education. She is more like the most significant actor or an idol for all the female who want to study and change the society through education. He states that “in my birth town in Mugu district (the most remote part in Nepal), most of the parents give first priority to male child for education, they do not really care about the girls. Girls in Mugu are treated as child labor by their own parents. Propagating the vision and the suffering of Malala can become the most important tool for female child education in the world.”
