These are not just sculptures, they are stories of survival and spirit, carved under the harsh sun of rural Zimbabwe. Over sixty, predominantly female artists create in extreme conditions, without shade or clean water. Spirit in Stone honours their resilience. Proceeds support clean water and shaded workspaces at Sanganai Art Centre.
