67 💯Keep It Moving | Wixx Mangutha
Episode 67
Friday, 22 December, 2023

In today's episode, we're joined by a familiar face in the Kenyan social media scene, Wixx Mangutha. Wixx is a visual storyteller, utilizing anything within reach to craft her art. With accolades like the Best Animator award (WIFA) and the Pulse Art Influencer award, she boasts collaborations with major brands such as Coca-Cola and Safaricom. Wixx generously shares her journey and the invaluable lessons she's gathered along the way. What makes her narrative particularly intriguing is her ascent in the art industry without any formal training, bridging the gap between formally educated creatives and self-taught artists. Her story is a testament to the power of hard work and persistence, especially resonating with self-taught creatives. Tune in for insights and inspiration from Wixx's remarkable journey! This is the 37th episode under the ‘Shifting Narratives’ program supported by the British Council SSA Arts. *For the best experience, please use a headset/earphones.
