Born in Guruve in Northern Zimbabwe, Stuart did four years at secondary school at Chifamba High.

Stuart began sculpting as a result of contact with the rural community of sculptors at Sanganai art group where he learned the basic techniques.

In 1997 he started to assist the talented sculptor Tavengwa Chapenga who was his greatest inspiration and helped him to develop his own style in sculpting.

Stewart is inspired by the mystery of daily life and he is a good obsever of human emotions and movements.  His sculptures are mostly abstract in nature, but the topics are universal and appeal to people all over the world.  His sculptures can be found in exhibitions and private collections in Germany, Holland, Australia, Canada and the U.S.

I’ve seen the previous two ZimSculpt exhibitions and, judging by the preview photographs, this year’s collection has a much more modernistic cast, somewhat whimsical in several of its pieces. Earlier exhibitions were “heavier,” always a problem with stone; several of this year’s major pieces are very graceful, more stylistic, and probably more attractive to a Western audience.
