Other Activities

In 2012, I had the opportunity to assist Tapfuma Gutsa with his research and exhibition on Tonga Baskets, gaining valuable experience and insight into the creative process as well as in the Basket Case II research and exhibition in 2014. Also assisted Gutsa at his residence program at Nirox Art Foundation in South African in 2021. In the year 2022 I worked with Calvin Art Hub to do monuments i.e. Aluminium casted Crocodiles and Zimbabwe birds for R. G. Mugabe Mausoleum at National Heroes Acre, Harare and a wall wooden relief sculpture that resembles Naletali Ruins for Zimbabwe New Parliament building in Mt. Dampden, Harare.
