PORTIA ZVAVAHERA
September 27, 2025 – February 8, 2026
For over two decades now, artist Portia Zvavahera, who was born in Harare, Zimbabwe in 1985, has been creating a deeply personal and emotionally charged body of work. These works draw their inspiration from dreams, spiritual experiences, and a pictorial tradition marked, amongst other things, by Zimbabwean culture as well as religious iconography. They are characterized by their use of luminous color, complex layering of figures and patterns, and their dovetailing of different techniques – one that includes block printing and gestural painting.
