This work, produced under the theme Taboos and Sacred Legends and entitled “Kufa Kwebatya2”, is based on Traditional belief of the Zezuru culture in Zimbabwean communities, which states that it is a Taboo for a mother to mourn the death of one of her dead twins. This work Franklyn has collaged faces with disembodied eyes and bodies of women which suggest the pain and agony the mother faces on the loss of her dead twin .On the other hand heads have stylish wigs and crowned to suggest beauty and power.
