My graduate collection is titled 'Vhuvha ha Minwenda /bhubha ha minwenda/. which means "The Essence of Minwenda" This collection is centered around my VhaVenda heritage and identity. I was drawn to this concept because I wanted to explore origins of the VhaVenda culture and print namely; Minwenda/Nwenda. VhaVenda originated from the kingdom of Mapungubwe (9th Century), and in that, Makunda (VhaVenda bangles) are used as accessories to show links and pay homage to the Mapungubwe Kingdom. I strive to constantly find beauty in the essence of my culture and further revitalise interest in it. Fabric details: - Nwenda in yellow and orange - Multicoloured Textile created from scratch, using scrap fabric, offcuts, and binding strips.
