Carving since 1993 young Crispen Salt apprenticed under the direction of two master Shona carvers with 20 years of experience each. "If I see a fun thing or a picture, I try to bring it into stone. I use my imagination to make my work more fantastic," says Crispen, "so more people will like it." Crispen's "dancing families" are among the most sophisticated abstract stone sculptures in the Shona tradition.
