Dominic Benhura
Dominic Benhura (born 1968) is a Zimbabwean sculptor. Benhura was born in Murewa, to the northeast of Salisbury (Harare since 1982). His father died before his birth, and he was raised by his mother. As he was an excellent student, it was suggested that he be sent to Salisbury for further studies. His uncle had a home in the suburb of Tafara, and Benhura went to live there at the age of ten; he lived with his cousin Tapfuma Gutsa, already a well-known sculptor. Benhura began polishing his cousin's sculptures, but soon began carving himself, making small before moving onto large stone. He sold his first piece at twelve.
