                                                    In 2014 Mupita began researching fractals and in particular their relationship to both nature and African traditional cultural practices from basket weaving to architecture and found a rich thematic field, which created a wealth of synergies with his interest in working with paper-based techniques. For the past 5 years, these explorations have merged with his personal life experiences and imagery emerging  traditional story-telling as a rich source of inspiration for fantastical works, such as "Missing In Action".
