Hi, I’m Nomntuthobeka Boya, an interdisciplinary artist who loves turning ideas into visually striking work. I work across painting, drawing, photography, and graphic design, and I enjoy collaborating with schools and communities to spark creativity. I’m self-taught and fueled by curiosity; my training at Imbali Visual Literacy helped sharpen my painting and design techniques, and I’ve partnered with NGOs and theatre groups to create meaningful visuals. I’m eager to contribute to teams that value learning, innovation, and storytelling.…Hi, I’m Nomntuthobeka Boya, an interdisciplinary artist who loves turning ideas into visually striking work.
