Innocent is a versatile artist and his sources of inspiration includes Family, people’s character, behaviour and feelings. He works primarily in abstract form. “The shape and form of abstracts broadens my mind” he states, “I can bring any idea I think of out of stone.”I can tell any story. The elegance and movement in his pieces are testimony to his creative and technical skill. When reflecting on the role of Art in Zimbabwean society, Innocent comments “I believe that art is seeing things in your own way, showing the unimaginable the untouchable. His goal, he explains, is to enrich the viewers with a deeper understanding of the subject. Innoscent like any other sculptor sees Zimbabwean sculptors as story tellers who celebrate and explore their culture as well as universal themes through their work. Innocent has participated in a number of group exhibitions at the Zimbabwe National Art Gallery and organized exhibitions across Europe, Canada and America.
