The current ‘situation’ in Zim!

1 December 2008

We’re back in Zimbabwe and things have become quite shocking.

It’s difficult to understand the situation.

We’ve just had an outbreak of Cholera, with over 400 reported deaths. There is no public water system anymore and electricity is getting just as bad.

Sadly in our sculptue business, more and more artists are finding greener pastures in South Africa, where there are tourists who are paying good prices and who can blame them – shipping their raw stones to South Africa to work on.

I find it hard to come to terms with how anyone is managing. The answer is they’re not!

There is much to love about the pairing of ZimSculpt and VanDusen. The combination of art and the garden enhances the experience of both. The larger Zimbabwean sculptures seem ideally suited to outdoor display: they are perfectly at home rising from a bed of perennials or standing tall beside Cypress Pond, and they act as dramatic accents to the Garden’s picturesque landscapes.
