Disability is not inability, and visual artist Chrisford Chayera is a true testimony of this expression. Born without hands, Chayera has managed to overcome the stigma and segregation that many disabled people in Malawi face, especially when it comes to finding employment. Chayera uses his mouth to paint portraits, which he sells, and the artist continues to make headlines in local media as his artwork attracts the attention of both Malawians and visitors from abroad. Looking at his paintings, it’s hard to believe that they are made using such a unique skill. The artist’s work mostly depicts village life as the central theme.
