FROM OUR GLOBAL PARTNERS: “In our culture, an artistic heritage is handed down through the generations. Parents pass on to their children the skill of carving, and appreciation for artistic beauty. By beginning to carve in childhood, we develop an individual artist style and way of expressing ourselves in stone. Our inspiration and subject matter stems from [the] traditions and stories upon which we are nurtured as children and African values and art [that] provide us with a solid foundation.”
