This
uniquely vibrant country after years of civil war is slowly spreading
its wings.
A country renowned for its visual beauty, magnificent coastline, abundant
fish and stunning vistas, it is also famous
for its traditional woodcarvers. Mozambique is rich with tropical
hardwoods, each with its own vibrant hue and configuration. In keeping
with a long line of family tradition, the woodcarvers each have their own personal
and ancestral style.

The
style ranges from traditional indigenous art to other worldly abstract
art. They evoke an almost Phantom-like being. At first impression, one
is slightly confused then the message the sculptor is conveying dawns on
you. Appreciation and admiration is felt.
