Zimbabwean tapestry artist, Moffat Takadiwa, is now part of the Institute Museum of Ghana’s permanent collection!

We are honoured to announce that work by Zimbabwean tapestry artist, Moffat Takadiwa, is now part of The Institute Museum of Ghana’s permanent collection.

‘The Chief Justice’ [2018] is a strong representation of Takadiwa’s upcycled large-scale sculptural works made from electronic waste and discarded domestic materials. This often results in an elegant ritualistic minimalism and voices the artist’s concerns around consumerism and inequality in the context of environmental conservation.

Counting Jay-Z as a fan, the artist’s work forms part of international collections including Art Jameel, United Arab Emirates; Foundation de 11 Lijnen, Belgium; Shanti Art Collection; Villa Datris Foundation, France; Southern African Foundation for Contemporary Art (SAFFCA), France and South Africa; and Fondazione Golinelli, Italy.
