Moses Zibor

Multitalented Moses Zibor, who started painting and drawing at the age of 7, is a man of many parts—model, actor, musician, footballer, physiologist, energy therapist, philanthropist, artist. He is a Kazakhstan-based artist from Bayelsa State who was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria to a Nigerian father and  Ghanaian mother. Born in 1978 in Lagos, Zibor completed his primary, secondary and university education all from 1985-2008. He graduated as a first class student from Yaba college of Technology in Yaba, Lagos in 2008, and immediately began a full time career as a professional painter engaging in many different art shows and exhibitions around the world. Despite a burgeoning career, Zibor took a 10 year hiatus from the world of art in 2010 to pursue another passion of his—football.  In 2020, a resurgent Moses Zibor was armed with elegantly rendered figurative paintings, pictorial essays, and essays of contemporary men and women. His art is alive with power, colour, and vibrancy that seemed to have only intensified with his time away from the canvas.
