George Masarira is a Visual Artist from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, who majored in fine art, ceramic design, pottery, and wood carving.
Masarira himself said that after he was admitted to the National Art Gallery of Zimbabwe in 2013, he saw the artist in him grow rapidly.
In his own words: “My artists transition evolved as I find myself enclosed in a contemporary spectrum which influences and inspires most of my works. I am mainly inspired by contemporary unfolding around me encompassing politics, economic, religion, environment and anything that involves cosmopolitan philosophy surrounding me. I am a provoking artist as most of my work describes what I feel to be the truth. I can be summarized as a radical cosmopolitan artist.
I refrain from art that does not speak to the heart and mind because every piece by me, is a result of a blend of lens captures, emotional raptures, philosophical triggers and a well thought out tapestry of hand movement and paintbrush stroke coordination. It will be a philosophical and monumental robbery to create memories and thoughts which do not change a life.”
