Chengeto Mayowe

Chengeto is a Zimbabwean artist based in Southern Africa. She recently picked up her paintbrushes and pencils again after an 8-year hiatus. Art was something she did with her father but after he passed away from cancer she did not want to see art until January this year.

She loves drawing and painting female figures, faces, patterns, and animals but admits to loving a challenge and being brought out of her comfort zone. Besides art, she writes novels and poetry books and sometimes hosts shows for a local radio station in Zimbabwe under her stage name 'The Oracle May'.

Studied Mass communication and majored in Public Relations as well as having a certification in Digital Marketing and a Google Africa Certificate in Digital Marketing.

I am yet to have an exhibition but I am working towards one this year hopefully. When I do have one it will focus on African art or figures.
