His work has been exhibited within Zimbabwe atthe Zimbabwe Annual Heritage ’91 and ’93. Heisa member of the National Gallery of Zimbabwe andoversea’s, his pieces are in permanent collections all over the world.

His works have been more successful in mixed media and he owes his success to his art of imagination and own creativity, hence his works are all original.

A real treat here in Wimbledon. At Cannizaro Park a superb open-air exhibition of Zimbabwean sculpture. There were many pieces, large and small, and a wide variety of different stone used in imaginative ways. And, overall, a real sense of Africa, linked to a long artistic tradition.

I was told that many of the sculptors had been trained within their own families: a father, an uncle, a grandfather, passing on the old skills.
