Featured in SIXTEEN X NINE WHM 2025, Mpho is a South African artist bridging traditional painting with digital creation. Her work exemplifies how Web3 can transform careers for creators from historically underrepresented regions. 

“My work is heavily inspired by those I don’t feel weee represented enough in media when I was young.” -MJ
