Pedzisai Mupinga

Pedzisai Mupinga, born on the 9th of September 1971 in Zimbabwe where he still lives today, at the foot of the Machgwangwa Mouantions, near Guvure with his wife Patience.

Pedzisai went to school in Nyahunzi and reached form IV in 1988. After school he worked on a tobacco farm hanging tobacco for curing. He left the tobacco farm in 1991 to start sculpting.

Pedzisai is a good man whose life is fully grounded in his faith, Christianity.

Pedzisai first started sculpturing in 1991, under the tutelage of the very famous Brighton Songo. He then began his own designs and sold his first creations to the National Art Gallery of Zimbabwe in 1994. Pedzisai then took his art to Kariba for international exposure, where many people fell in love with his sculptures.

His perfectionism in his flowing abstract creations fit in with most architecture and designs, and his combination of rough and smooth texture make his pieces a joy to touch and see.

Pedzisai inspiration is drawn from the actual piece of stone, sometimes by nature and sometimes through dreams, If you own a piece of his art you are a lucky person indeed, it is something that you will enjoy for the rest of your life.
