Onias Muphuma

Onias won the sculpture category in the visual arts section of the 2008 National Arts Merit Awards awarded by Zimbabwe’s National Arts Council. Well-deserved national recognition from Zimbabwe’s arts elite, for one of the brightest stars in a new generation of talent.

Onias was born in Rusape, Zimbabwe. He completed his O-Levels in 1995 and moved to Harare in 1997. In Harare, his uncle encouraged Onias to try stone sculpture, under his guidance. Onias started doing his own sculptures in 1999 and is now a well-established artist with many international patrons.

Onias’ style is graceful and organic with fluid uncomplicated lines, reflecting the beauty of natural design. He is a star of his generation.

Onias and his brother Itayi have been promoted by ZimSculpt for over a decade. Onias is ZimSculpt’s most popular artist and is gaining increasing recognition both inside and outside Zimbabwe.
