Amon Nyamache Kibet’s artistic journey began with his creative upbringing—his father crafted musical instruments, and his mother sang in a local choir. "My parents taught me to be creative," he says. His passion for art truly ignited when he discovered the potential of a smartphone to capture and transform the world through photography and film.

Participating in MASK Awards helped Amon develop and express his ideas. "I follow other artists from the MASK community and study their work," he adds. His mission is to inspire others through his creations, hoping to help them overcome their challenges.
