This sculpture is being sold through us by a private collector, who purchased it from an exhibition of Shona sculpture in Singapore in 1997 organised by the Chapungu Sculpture Park.
A quintessential Colleen, whose main body of work explored the roles and life experiences of Zimbabwe’s women. Her light touch on the surface of the stone contrasts with the substantial nature of the work.
The seller has an original Chapungu certificate of authenticity to accompany the piece. The piece is signed on the back at the base.
Beware of less scrupulous galleries than ourselves selling non-authentic ‘Colleens’. Detailed provenance gives the collector great piece of mind when investing in major artworks, and this piece is well supported.
A rare opportunity to acquire a highly collectable genuine work by Zimbabwe’s most famous female sculptor.
The sculpture is in the UK and will be shipped from there; P&P at buyer’s expense.
