This striking painting, God’s Flower, was created by Ruvarashe Zhakata, a young student from Harare. The work radiates both beauty and spirituality, portraying a young woman illuminated by a glowing light, her face adorned with delicate blossoms. In Zimbabwe, faith and religion are deeply interwoven with daily life, guiding values, community, and identity. Flowers in this piece symbolize purity and divine creation, while the light she cradles suggests the presence of God’s guidance. Religion in Zimbabwe is not only practiced but lived—it is a source of strength, resilience, and unity, shaping cultural traditions and personal journeys alike. Through this artwork, Ruvarashe conveys the belief that faith is a light within, blossoming outward to give hope and beauty to the world.Try it!
