NUDE
SIZE: LARGE
ARTIST: TENDAI GWARAVAZA
Sculpted from DOLOMITE by 3rd Generation SHONA artist, TENDAI GWARAVAZA.
TENDAI was born in 1981 in Wedza, Zimbabwe. The first born of seven children. He grew up in an inspiring environment, his father being a sculptor and neighbouring uncles who were wood carvers. They used their skills to make drums and the Mbira - thumb piano. His brother Timothy was also a sculptor.
His first inspirations for his abstract sculptures came from the sea, with its fluid form and the creatures within. That influence is still evident today.
His art expresses the beliefs of the SHONA people and he is highly respected at the Chitungwiza Art Centre, where he is based.
Utterly breathtaking in its beauty. The quartz crystals in this piece really shine in the light.
There are areas of translucency throughout the piece, adding to its beauty, making it positively shimmer.
It has been difficult to convey from the photos exactly how beautiful this piece is.
Being abstract in nature, it has notes reminiscent of Picasso, who was a follower of the Shona movement and influenced by it.
A lovely impact sculpture that would enhance any home setting.
DIMENSIONS: H57 x W20 x D14cm.
