Tradition struggles against the onslaught of modernity and technology throughout our world, especially in rural societies. In ‘Musical Instrument’ the artist assigns special significance to an age old stick-like instrument that is disappearing across his country. Used for light musical entertainment among groups relaxing after a day of toil, this simple instrument, called the Chipendeni in Shona, holds a special place in the mind of the artist. The refinement and classical design that the artist has given to this sculpture elevates it to an object of substantial value to be cherished for all time. Muzondo was inspired to do this work by visions he had of this instrument in a dream. |
