ABOUT ARTIST
Mzie born and bred in the Eastern Cape in South Africa, he matriculated at Ngcongolo S.S.S. After
matriculating Mzie went to work in factory for 7 years, whiles’ working at the factory the artist in him
was brewing and came to boil when he received several warnings and let go by management who told
him he didn’t belong in a factory. Instead of writing incoming and out ongoing production reports he was
engaged in creative dialog and distracting the other employees. He took the management comment to
heart and followed his passion and talent that is when he enrolled in basics in art course, sponsored by a
company who identified his artistic talent. The company was later liquidated but the artistic bug had bit,
the creative industry was calling Mize and he eagerly responded. In 2008 Mize obtained a certificate in
Fine arts and he pursued his studies further and successfully completed a three-year course diploma at
FUNDA COMMUNITY COLLEGE. Committed to turning his artistic talent and growing it into sustainable
business, he completed a certificate in a creative business development workshop hosted by the
world-renowned artistic entrepreneur Ralph Seippel and the department of arts and culture.
