Emmanuel Mukwiro is a contemporary artist born in Zimbabwe who has become known for his unique use of sustainable materials and traditional African themes. Mukwiro is most recognized for his etchings and collograph prints, which are distinguished by the unconventional surface he uses: recycled elephant dung paper. The paper is 100% acid-free and handmade, providing a textured, organic, and earth-toned background that complements his subject matter. His work typically captures everyday scenes of African life, traditional rituals, and human connections. "Lighting fire the traditional way" is one of Emmanuel Mukwiro’s well-known etchings on handmade elephant dung paper. It is a quintessential example of his style, focusing on ancestral African customs and the simplicity of rural life. Signed Emmanuel Mukwiro and dated 2011. Dimensions: Frame: 40cm x 32.5cm
