Zana Masombuka

Zana Masombuka (b. 2000), known professionally as the 'Ndebele Superhero', is a Johannesburg-based creative director whose work is a powerful exploration of modern African identity. Drawing profound inspiration from her upbringing in Siyabuswa, rural KwaNdebele, she merges her rich cultural heritage with a contemporary, global perspective.

A graduate of International Studies from Stellenbosch University, Masombuka applies critical thinking to the complexities of globalization and its impact on the continent. Her art speaks to the urgent need for Africans to pioneer their own narratives, challenging post-colonial dynamics and preserving heritage on their own terms.

Her projects delve into the politics of inclusion, or "a seat at the table," examining how capitalism and inequality shape engagement within institutional paradigms. She explores the parallel existence of indigenous cultures within the modern world, the true price of representation, and the importance of recognizing Africa's diverse, heterogeneous nature. Ultimately, Masombuka's work acts as a bold invitation to imagine new ways of being, beyond the constraints of current schools of thought.
