Bongo Love 2009
Where U Lead, I Will Follow
Professional Category
Bongo
began carving stone and wood in Africa when he was very young, under the influence of his grandfather. In Zimbabwe,
it is common for families to pass the trade of sculpting down among the generations and Bongo's family often created effigies
of animals. The animals are symbolic of their tribal cultural traditions and are often inspired by dreams.
He also focuses on mother-and-child and family abstract pieces.
Bongo competed in Campbell River in 2007 and won 3rd
place in the Professional Category with his sculpture "Heart to Heart". In 2009, Bongo won "People's Choice" with his carving "Where U
Lead, I Will Follow" located at Island Timberlands. |
