We had the good fortune of connecting with Gabriel Moneke and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Gabriel, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
As a child, I recall being heavily influenced by iconic characters with a sense of duty or thirst for adventure. I found art as a means to express and record the ideas that bubbled up from within. What initially started as Lucid-dreaming on paper as an escape from reality grew into a passion for art and story telling, tools I use to share my observations with the world. I believe the role of an artist is to observe the society, learn without bias and create art that invokes deep thought or a collective sense of identity.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
My goal as a Creative is to engage minds in a way that inspires curiosity & progression in the society. I tend to focus on subjects that revolve around the Human experience, emotions & existential concepts. My inspiration comes from a blend of experiences & thoughts with the aim of inciting re-examinations of values & convictions.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
To my family & friends for always being loving and supportive of my decisions, for believing in me even when it was hard for me to believe in myself.
