Within South Africa we courier your artwork to your door - the shipping cost will show at the checkout. When shipping art internationally, two primary options are commonly considered: crated and rolled. Crating involves securely packaging the artwork in a custom-built crate, providing maximum protection against physical damage but often resulting in higher shipping costs due to size and weight. We will be in touch regarding the best options for you. Virtual hanging of art is an innovative service we offer that allows art enthusiasts and collectors to visualize how artworks will appear in their desired spaces before making a purchase. We digitally place the selected artworks on your walls, in the correct scale to achieve the desired aesthetic. This service not only helps in making informed decisions but also enhances the overall art-buying experience, providing a realistic preview of the final result and ensuring that the chosen artworks harmonize with the surrounding decor. Please contact us to make use of this service!

On the other hand, rolling art involves taking stretched paintings off the frame, carefully wrapping the artwork and placing it in a protective tube. This method is more cost-effective and suitable for flexible pieces.
Choosing between crating and rolling depends on the specific artwork's size, fragility, and budget, as well as the destination's shipping requirements and regulations.

Prudence Chimutuwah
Prudence Chimutuwah
Prudence Chimutuwah’s work explores the emergence of the 21st-century woman as she steps into spaces historically dominated by men. Her practice is deeply inspired by the everyday lives of women, their economic aspirations, spiritual pursuits, resilience, and drive. She views women as the incubators of society; when nurtured, what they hold within multiplies. This belief, shaped by her own journey as a creative woman, fuels her commitment to depositing authentic energy into women of her generation and beyond. Through her art, she seeks to narrate, describe, and inform audiences about the evolving roles of women in patriarchal societies.
Her technique combines figurative painting, paper collage, and printmaking through stenciling on canvas. Her figures are often painted in blue, a colour she considers personal and neutral, transcending the boundaries of race. She aspires to address a universal womanhood that exists beyond space, race, and creed. Her work is subtly influenced by contemporary African fashion, as well as text and symbolic imagery.
The collage elements in her works incorporate decommissioned Zimbabwean banknotes, African textiles, old novels, magazines, and newspapers. These materials carry layers of history and cultural meaning, enabling her to weave narratives that connect past and present, tradition and modernity, and personal story with collective identity.
Prudence Chimutuwah is represented by The Artists Gallery in Cape Town.
