ACROSS BORDERS      
MOFFAT TAKADIWA

EXHIBITION OPENING
WEDNESDAY 16 MARCH: 18H00 – 20H30

WHATIFTHEWORLD is pleased to present Across Borders – a solo exhibition of new works by Moffat Takadiwa. Moffat Takadiwa’s practice over the past several years has evolved to elevate found objects into sculptural forms that engage with issues of cultural identity, spirituality, social practice and the environment. His work speaks potently to the cultural dominance illustrated by the consumption of foreign products in Zimbabwe and across Africa. Takadiwa was born in Karoi, Zimbabwe in 1983 and he currently lives and works in Harare.
