Witness was born in 1975 in Mudzi, Mutoko. Witness is the second born in a family of seven.

Witness grew up in Domboshava, Chinamhora where he achieved his primary education. He then moved to Mabvuku, on the outskirts of Harare and completed his secondary education.

He started sculpting in 1992 with the late Nicholas Mukomberanwa and then with his elder brother Lameck Bonjisi. He was mainly inspired into the sculpture world by his brother Lameck.

In 1997 he started sculpting his own pieces.

He has attended workshops in America and Switzerland and his works can be found in galleries and private collections all over the world.

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.
