MUFASA is a Luxury Indigenous art made by hand

Moises Ivan Cruz Altamirano was born in Mexico DF, now CDMX. His paternal family is from the state of Oaxaca and his maternal family is from the state of Nayarit. Son to Gameli Cruz Garcia, a pillar in education throughout Mexico, and Dionicia Altamirano Gomez who taught English in CDMX.

Mufasa grew up in Tecate, Baja California and at the age of 12 immigrated to United States. During his earlier years, he performed odd jobs like construction, roofing and sales.

Moises’ true passion has always been art and music, which to this day, remain a major part of his life. As an adult, Moises owned and operated several businesses, nevertheless he continues to search for his true purpose.

When his father, aunt and uncle passed away just days after each other, Moises had a vision. The vision was to fuse the

art from the hills of Jalisco & Nayarit and Oaxaca.

Moises left everything in the United States to search for artists from both states to create this fusion.

This is the vision of Mufasa: to fuse art, create jobs and help indigenous communities. Most of the proceeds from every piece directly benefit the communities and artist who work with so much patience, respect and love.
