🔥 MOYO WANGU (My Heart)

“Moyo Wangu (My Heart)” brings the Veil of Fire inward, transforming elemental force into human experience. A dense, sculptural red form—folded, strained, and alive—emerges from a field of heat and erosion. The dripping pigment evokes both wound and release, as if the heart is suspended between breaking and becoming. Here, fire is no longer external; it is internalized as memory, resilience, and identity. Within Zendism, the work reflects the human spirit enduring transformation—where pain, creation, and renewal exist as one continuous pulse.

Veil of Fire - Ancestral Ascent (3/3 Piece)
Rooted in African identity, Chitenge represents culture reclaimed and worn with pride. The textured form anchors the journey in lived experience — not only survival, but continuity. The dripping red becomes both bloodline and creative force, connecting generations. This is the moment of embodiment: the forefathers are no longer shadows but foundations, shaping identity, resilience, and future.

Veil of Fire: Ancestral Ascent  (1/3)

The red veil symbolizes the inherited weight of history — a covering shaped by silence, suffering, and survival. It is both protection and imprisonment, obscuring identity while preserving memory. Beneath its folds lie the voices of ancestors who endured, their presence felt but not yet fully revealed. This work captures the moment before awakening — when history still rests heavily upon the living.

Veil of Fire: Ancestral Ascent 2/3

Here, the form begins to rise. The weight of the veil transforms into movement — an upward surge of spirit breaking through limitation. The ancestors are no longer hidden; they begin to assert themselves, reclaiming dignity and presence. The sharp, wing-like structure suggests both struggle and elevation — a passage from oppression toward self-realization.
