Tafanana Sango was born in 1986 in Guruve, a town northwest of Harare. He grew up in a family of five children and did his High School education at Mamoni Secondary School.

He began carving sculptures at the tender age of 14. The inspiration from his brothers Onward and Edmore Sango and the fascination for cubistic forms let him develop his own style. His work is highly appreciated in many countries in North America, Europe and Asia.
