#Meettheartist Thamisanga Mfuphis a self-taught artist born in 1998 in rural areas of KwaZulu Natal in Estcourt, currently based and working in Johannesburg. After the death of his mother in 2002, he moved to stay with his stepmother's family in Zimbabwe, where he learned life lessons the hard way, being a victim of child abuse, being denied a chance to go to school like any other kid, going weeks without anything to eat, at times being chased out from the place he considered home. These are amongst the challenges he faced throughout 13 years he lived in Zimbabwe. This was the birth of his talent and gift as he normally used it to heal, find peace and tell his journey using materials he was surrounded by. Matriculated in 2017. He then went to further his studies at the University of Johannesburg, within the school of Business and Economics where he was institutionalized for a Bachelor of commerce in Business Management, and he obtained his qualification on record time.
