Prof Del Razio, Italian curator of the Building Art Bridges Between Italy and Zambia Exhibition (BABIZ) at Lusaka National Museum explaining my work to President Hichilema and Sergio Mattarella, Italian President as I looked on. President HH congratulated me for the work done. HH could not resist playing one of our indigenous musical instruments, the Kalimba.

I go beyond musical instruments to also create works that don't only interrogate our identity.

I also look into proverbial themes. This one is under the theme, 'Mayo Mpapa', lifted from a Bemba proverb. This proverb about symbiotic relationship between parents and children in also common in many other indigenous Zambian tribes.

Mayo Mpapa is about the importance of our Mothers in our Lives. They nature and nurture till we become meaningful members of our societies.

In Literal sense, 'Mayo Mpapa' means, 'Mother take care of me today and I will take care of you tomorrow.'

More about the popular series of ' Our Legacy'. I continue to explore various, indigenous Zambian and African Musical instruments. The idea is to continue the documentation of our cultural heritage through the motifs that define our identity.

We can only belong when we have an identity. It's a way of researching and interrogating our cultural identity that is so rich.

Memories of a great gesture of my work being presented by His Excellency President HH to the Pope Francis.

The Piece in progress, under the Title: 'Our Roots', seeks to add to my study and investigation of our Legacy. It's a piece that gives symbolisms of our African Traditional Musical Instruments; The Shakers, Rattles, Drum, Kalimba thumb piano and A Horn. It taps into what defines our true African culture. The African traditional muscal instruments are placed on some Ebony Root to consolidate the title, 'Our Roots'. The whole piece is mounted on the Rose Wood base about 80cm in height.
