About
Tanaka Mazivanhanga is a contemporary artist whose work delves into themes of memory, identity, and the preservation of histories. Specialising in printmaking, installations, and object-making, she values the physicality of working with her hands and engaging directly with materials. This hands-on approach enables her to layer textures, build marks, and create tactile images.

Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork
Untitled III Landscape Series explores the often-overlooked marks and surfaces of the urban landscape. Texture plays a vital role in this work, brought to life through the painterly qualities of the Mokulito process, which evokes the essence of diverse landscapes.

Remnants reflects remnants left by enslaved women during the Atlantic slave trade on the Gold Coast, capturing and honouring their presence. Deeply etching the metal plate was essential to convey the depth and weight of their stories.
