Antony Masamba, born on 12 June 1973, discovered his passion for art through the legacy of his grandfather, a talented woodcarver. This early exposure to creativity left a lasting impression and inspired him to pursue sculpting as a way to honor his roots while developing his own artistic voice. Raised with a totem (mutupo) of Milanzi and a rural home in Mozambique, Antony's journey reflects a deep connection to tradition and family heritage.
A pivotal figure in Antony’s artistic development was the late Albert Nathan Mamvura, a renowned Zimbabwean sculptor. Under Mamvura’s guidance, Antony refined his skills and began shaping his career. With 21 years of experience, Antony has become an established artist in his own right, consistently evolving while remaining true to his creative vision.
Antony works with a variety of stones, each chosen for its distinct qualities—Cobalt, Springstone, Fruit Serpentine, Opal, and Flower Serpentine. His artistic focus lies in Creative Abstract sculptures, transforming raw stone into unique, imaginative forms. Deeply inspired by the concept of love, Antony believes that love has the power to transform enemies into friends—a philosophy that infuses his work with meaning and emotional depth.
