A Life Dedicated to
African Art,
People, and Possibility
“Each handcrafted piece carries
something of its maker’s
experience and cultural identity.
Through art, we share Africa’s
stories with the world.”
Originally from Cameroon and now based in South Africa, Moyo Linjouom Younchahou, known
as Mr Moyo, was born into a family whose connection to African art stretches back to the 1800s.
His forefathers created and traded art, passing their craftsmanship and cultural knowledge
down through successive generations. Today, he carries this inheritance forward through Moyo
Fine Arts and his work with Okuhle.

The family's recorded artisan lineage
spans five generations: Ngamfekegam,
Ngnangou Mekene, Nji Motapon Daouda,
Nji Moumie Amadou, and Moyo Linjouom.
Across this history, the family has created
and traded many thousands of art pieces.
For Mr Moyo, this legacy represents both
a livelihood and a responsibility to
preserve African heritage for generations
to come.
Under his leadership, Moyo Fine Arts
connects artisans across the continent
with audiences around the world. The
business sources art from more than
120 villages and over 50 communities
across 35 African countries, offering
ethically sourced art, décor, and
furniture that reflect Africa's diverse
creative traditions. Its pieces have
reached customers in more than 110
countries.
Moyo Fine Arts currently employs more
than 25 people, and over 2,000 people
have benefited from its work.
Supporting the makers behind the art
remains central to Mr Moyo’s vision,
particularly talented artisans in rural
communities
who
have
limited
opportunities to exhibit and sell their
creations.
This commitment extends to training
young artists, helping them develop
practical skills that enable them to earn
a living and support their families.
By encouraging younger generations to
work with their hands and build on
inherited knowledge, Mr Moyo seeks to
keep traditional craftsmanship alive
while creating opportunities for the
future.
Moyo Fine Arts is collaborating with
Okuhle to uplift young farmers and
artisans across Africa. Together, we
aim to raise awareness of African
food traditions, support education
and skills development, creating
opportunities for learning and exchange
within the continent and beyond.
