Boniface Chikwenhere is a keen bird watcher, which is one of the reasons they feature so prominently in his collection. This little sculpture is made from wild olive wood and demonstrates the skill with which Boni draws a shape from the raw wood.
Each one-of-a-kind sculpture is inspired by the character of the found wood, Boniface seeing his mission as completing nature's work and revealing the animal form that he sees emerging from the grain of the wood. Often the wood is left raw in part of the finished piece, the natural and polished surfaces making a harmonious whole.
Each sculpture is mounted on a stand and there is a choice of a wooden or metal base. All sculptures are fumigated and shipped with a fumigation certificate.
