CHIKWA is an artist from Lusaka, his work involves collecting a lot of different
kind of objects, man made and natural objects, to compose some art piece
that borders between painting and sculpture, yet it is non of these. Chikwa
has perfected his trend of pasting these objects or elements carefully on
the canvas to transmit messages coded in African cultural costumes. Some
objects were bought and others picked from the environment, together he
brought to life an art form of its kind. He came much earlier than all participants
to organize materials he deemed important for the type of his work. A wooden
stretcher with sisal ropes running parallel clad with two round sacks and
a painted African broom ( ichipyango, chipyngo ) exhibits good craftsmanship,
he entitled his composition Unity. |
