Listen to artist Misheck Masamvu in conversation with Dr Cleo Roberts-Komireddi where he discusses his key thematic grounding: an exploration of Zimbabwe’s post-independence character through painting, drawing and sculpture. Sensitive to the country’s economic and political turmoil, he uses frenetic mark making with elements of figuration lurking beneath to go some way to capturing and articulating the experiences of Zimbabweans. Masamvu's civic spiritedness is similarly felt at Village Unhu, an art space he co-founded in the capital Harare to nurture young artistic talent.
