She is showing the strength of her love for her child. A lovely interpretation of the eternal theme of the mother and child.

Boet, who won the NAMA (National Arts Merit Awards) competition in 2012 and 2010, remains miles ahead of the pack in terms of technical ability and attention to detail. It takes a huge amount of skill to create such detailed and delicate pieces from very hard stone.

If you like Boet's work, you might also enjoy sculptures by Rufaro Murenza and Jonathan Mhondorohuma.
