'Between'
(2024)
[Original prints to be accessible in good time]

29 May '25 I attended an inspiring photography exhibition by Chicago Dzviti. During the vernissage, I had to maneuver a barrage of questions pertaining to my involvement in contributing to the art and craft of photography itself. The whole time I was fighting the surge of urge to spill the paint and show them some unreleased pieces.

Well, this image serves as the balloon that distracts the paediatric patient before the anaesthesia kicks in. When they wake up, they may be welcomed by a number of photographic series' that will explain the quietness. It is by design. The focus is on painting and learning new media, maintaining photography a passion which I hold dearly since it is my primary medium of expression anyway.

'Between' is a photograph that serves as a depiction of how I work mentally or artistically. As in, I play between courts and passages are open yet transparent with the fence serving as a nonrestrictive boundary between my creative borders. With each having their own rules to adhere to. In the frame, is a fence between a tennis court and a handball court, which are two sports that require seemingly nothing similar, but in hind sight share the need for discipline, fitness, technical prowess, passion and to be enjoyed. Which translates to my Art that may be different in media, but the philosophy remains intact.

To those that have since followed and appreciated my photography, and Art as a whole, I hope you can be more patient and be pacified by the paintings for now. I will make the wait worthwhile. Expect a show with my paintings in the coming month. Toonana pachikamu chinotevera.

An honor to be exhibiting some of my photography at the under

___ ___ ___

artHARARE will showcase photographic work at the 2024 edition of the Investec Cape Town Art Fair under the theme ‘Mushikashika’ with works by , , , , and .chakwaz_jpg.

The exposition will invite the audience to explore the city of Harare through the lens of photography from a ‘mushikashika’ taxi. The photographs are displayed on vehicle windows, windshields, mirrors and side mirrors that frame the city scenes.

In the heart of a bustling Harare metropolis, photography becomes the visual narrator, framing the dynamic scenes that define the essence of urban life. Through the lens, these photographers become both observers and interpreters, distilling the energy, diversity, and vibrancy of the city into frozen moments that tell us compelling stories.

The photographs in this exhibition serves as a powerful medium to document the kaleidoscope of urban experiences. Wonai Haruperi’s photographs encapsulates the architectural marvels that pierce the skyline, while Lennox Makurumidze’s work show the eclectic street life that pulses with activity, and Martina Gruber’s work shows the interplay of light and shadow that paints the cityscape in ever-changing hues.

Kudakwashe Chakwada, Tinotenda Chamuka and Nothando Chiwanga’s work freezes the candid expressions of passersby, the rhythmic flow of traffic, and the juxtaposition of the old and new that characterizes urban evolution.

In all, these photographers wield the unique ability to highlight the overlooked, uncovering the beauty in the mundane or the extraordinary within the ordinary.
