Born in Guruve in 1975 Onwardis young brother of the late Brighton Sango. He grew up surrounded by stone art and his earliest memoriesare associated with stone sculpture where he witnessed his brother turning into a celebrity in this art form.

By mid 87 he begun sculpting under the guidance of his brother. It was from then that he saw himself as an artist. Thus his work evolved and blossomed over time and during the early 90’s he started to sculpt in his own right finding his own style.

Afterthe untimely death of his brother he never looked back and to date worksalongside his young brothers in Guruve, of which they created a home studio known as the Sango Gallery. At the studio his role is to give workshops to his younger brothers and son’s of the late Brighton. To date the Sango Gallery has gained ground in marketing the area of Guruve.

Onward says “I just wish to see me family maintain vibrance in cubic art. Art is the most important inheritance from my late brother”.
