Episode 25 meets artist Misheck Masamvu who considers 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. Misheck’s civic spiritedness is similarly felt at Village Unhu, an art space he co-founded in the capital Harare to nurture young artistic talent.
Misheck’s work has been exhibited internationally at the 54th Venice Biennale, 22nd Sydney Biennale, Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa, among others. In January 2024, he will be included in curator Zoe Whitley’s exhibition at The Institutum, Singapore. Misheck took a break from his painting and joined me from his studio in Harare.
