Qiniso Mungwe

20th Century 

Qiniso Mungwe was born in 1990 in Mpophomeni near Howick. He joined Ardmore in November 2010 as a sculptor. He says: “I like playing with clay, making different designs, especially trays, platters and square bowls. I like to create any animals that fit with the particular design or shape I have made.” Fée Halsted says: “Qiniso has great flair at hand-building and is truly inventive. His hexagonal dishes and bowls are his personal signature as they are so distinctive.” Mungwe has participated in numerous exhibitions thoughout South Africa and his work is represented in international collections.
