Colleen Madamombe was born in 1964 and has achieved an unusual level of success for a woman in Zimbabwe, traditionally a male dominated society. Her work deals with the role of women in Zimbabwean society, often addressing the changing role of the woman in modern African life. Her trademark female figures are known the world over, and her work is an integral part of any collection of Zimbabwean Sculpture. Colleen is very much aware of her role as a woman sculptor of renown, and keeps up challenging other young female artists to pursue a career like her own. 'I ask of you women to work as sculptors as well as the men. But I know it is difficult, if you are married. Most men do not want their wives to be sculptors in their own right. I myself was married, and my husband was a sculptor himself, but now I am divorced, providing for my 7 children. But it is all right.' Her sculptures, which are always depicting proud African women, have a very direct appeal to everybody, not least women in the rural areas of Zimbabwe, who immediately identify themselves with her female figures, thus creating a very direct link between great art and people of the countryside of Zimbabwe.
