Like a ship that sails faraway places she brings back exotic surprises. Before dawn she prepares breakfast for her family. Skilled in the craft of homemaking she reaches out to assist the poor. When she speaks it’s worthwhile to say face tomorrow with a smile…
That is how artists Mercy Moyo and Doris Kamupira describe their installation, ‘Women of Virtue’, which is currently in place at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Harare.
Moyo and Kamupira are former students of the BAT Studio, now called the National Gallery School of Visual Arts and Design (NGSVAD). They have both participated in several exhibitions locally and internationally and are both NAMA award recipients, specialising in painting and printmaking.
Currently they are art instructors at NGSVAD.
