The Meeting Point, 2010. National Gallery of Zimbabwe.

The Perambulator is a piece if work that  started out with two different objects. Both of which had been discarded and were no longer needed. I found an old baby's pram in my parents back yard, that I had once ridden in, rusting away and $100 000 Zimbabwean dollars thrown in the park next to other bits of money that had been burnt.This was piece that I made as a way to deal with the drastic change that happened to the country I grew up in.



Pram from my childhood.


$100 000 ZW





Final piece.


'Perambulator', 2010 On show at the Gallery.

Tin cup Installation

A Land Flowing with Milk and Honey, 2009 was exhibited for my degree show.The work dealt with issues that were contradictory to the title and the project stemmed from the Cholera outbreak in Zimbabwe that broke out in August 2008. The work consisted of rusting tin cans being turned into cups and then placed precariously on top of each other.













    
















One year later...

The tin cups are now situated near a small river
where they have been left to live out the rest of their life.
