Mwandale Mwanyekwa, 37, is a sculptress from Mtwara, Tanzania with over 15 years experience in her craft. Commonly referred to as Big Mama, ironic as the spirited lady has a petit figure perhaps it’s her hair which is mostly seen in a big hair wrap. Catching up with her, it was to learn she had recently finished a commission for two big (over 10ft) sculptures for a newly constructed resort hotel ‘Ramada’;situated in Jangwani Beach on the coastline of Dar es Salaam. The pieces are in the main lobby and as seen in the photo they’re sizeable.
