We Look to God by Florence Mujuru. Members of an Apostolic church in white robes during a sermon, against pink and blue.

We look
to God

In a country facing various challenges such as economic issues and social tensions, many people have found comfort in faith, the Apostolic faith being the most popular, which blends traditional Shona and Ndebele practices with Christianity. This artwork portrays members of an Apostolic church during a sermon. By incorporating fabric into some of the figures’ clothing, I aimed to experiment with texture and create a visual contrast between the more detailed attire and the plain white garments. Additionally, I intentionally used pink and blue backgrounds to juxtapose the white clothing, resulting in a striking contrast within the painting.
