Tanzanian sculptress creates black Venus at Kuona

Safina Said Kimbokota just had an Open Day at Kuona Trust where the Tanzanian sculptor shared the artwork that she had created during the three weeks that she’d been an Artist-in-Residence at the Trust.

The time had flown by and Ms Kimbokota only managed to construct one large mixed media scrap metal sculpture. But that’s no wonder, given she not only chose to weave and weld scrap metal wire into a three-dimensional form which she then welded into a circular light steel frame.
