Chish is a visual artist and designer born in Zambia and currently based in Canada. His artistic journey began at a young age, first learning to draw from his cousin while living at his grandmother’s home in Zambia. Early influences from musicians, actors, visual artists, and world leaders helped shape his creative vision and continue to inform his multidisciplinary practice today.

Through his practice, Chish uses art as a language for connection, storytelling, and cultural expression. Guided by the belief that art can spark joy, reflection, and deeper meaning, his work aims to recreate the sense of wonder that first drew him to creating. His most recent work explores his faith and engaging the creative process through a biblical lens.
