Moses Izabiriza
Izabiriza Moise, a Rwandan artist, began his artistic journey in 2012, evolving into a self-taught professional.
His work, primarily semi-abstract, street art mural,
and abstract paintings, extends to labor-intensive art installations.
Weaving, sewing, rolling, and twisting are part of his toolbox, infusing his creations with fluidity and emotion.
He believes in art’s healing power, motivating him to impact physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
Moses showcases his work in local and international exhibitions, earning recognition and appreciation.
With each brushstroke, he remains dedicated to fostering healing, unity, and positive change through his art, making a meaningful difference in individuals and communities.
During the Wild Mural Festival, Moses Izabiriza has been connected to the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund that works with the protection of Gorillas in Africa.
In September 1967, Dr. Dian Fossey established
the Karisoke Research Center in Rwanda’s Virunga
mountains and set in motion one of the longest-running studies of any animal species anywhere in the world.
Her focus, courage and passion have inspired many
conservationists who have followed since.
And her legacy lives on today,
in the gorilla protection, science, education
and people programs of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund.
Their core mission is to save gorillas.
They do this through a holistic approach that is founded on four key pillars:
daily gorilla protection, scientific research,
training the next generation of conservationists
in Africa, and helping local communities.
Their goal is to ensure the future of gorilla conservation
for generations to come.
