Biography: Jonothan Mhondurohuma
was born on Christmas day in 1974 in Mrurwi. In 1989, Jonothan's
good friend Square Chikwanda asked him if he would come to Tengenenge.
He studied there for six months under Chikwanda. He found that the
rural life was not for him, so he decided to move back to Harare.
It was there that he studied with the late Joseph Ndandarika at
the Kentucky Hotel.
Ndandarika had a great influence on the work of Mhondurohuma, as
can be seen in the fluidity of his lines and his meticulous composition.
His work includes aspects of classical Zimbabwean sculpture as well
as innovative subjects. He is one of the major talents of the young
Shona sculptors.
