Dancing Torso by Garrison Machinjili

Garrison is one of the best ‘torso’ sculptors in Zimbabwe today. The torso’s are stylised and angular on the hips. This particular model is very popular, showing his skill in capturing movement and grace in stone.

It’s the height of summer, and ZimSculpt is bringing the sizzle back to Vancouver! Breaking up the gray skies and bringing with it the sun. This exhibit of stone sculptures from Zimbabwe has returned to VanDusen Botanical Gardens…

Pulling from a long established sculpting tradition, these pieces speak to traditional themes such as family and spirituality. Yet do so with a unique modern flair. Zimbabwe is home to many of the world’s most notable sculptors. Which is evident in every spectacular piece thoughtfully and artistically placed through out some of the most lush and beautiful perennial beds in the city!
