Cyrus Kabiru is a self-taught sculptor, who is known for his found-material sculptures; evidencing intricate, handmade eye-wear and self-portrait photographs, as well as bicycle-like constructions. Kabiru was a resident artist at the Fundació Han Nefkens in Barcelona, Spain (2016); and the Africa First Residency in Israel (2019). Kabiru has presented talks as part of the The Young. The Wise. The Undiscovered at the TED Talk Conference in Los Angeles (2013); and most recently, Re-Visioning Arica Through the Creative Lens with Cyrus Kabiru at the Smithsonian National Museum of African Art, Washington D.C. (2019). His work formed part of the fourth edition of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale, Kochi (2018) and Material Insanity, MACAAL, Marrakech (2019). Kabiru‘s work was also included in the seminal travelling exhibition Making Africa – A Continent of Contemporary Design at various museums (2015 – 2017).
