Innocent’s desire for art began at the age of 12 in primary school. After completing O levels he came to the capital, Harare, where he eventually met Fungai Mwarowa who taught him to carve in stone.  After this period Innocent continued to work at Chapungu Sculpture Park .

 

Innocent is known for his "Lovers" sculptures where he narrates how love dominates our lives socially.  He also depicts quirky forms of the insect and animal life and has also ventured into abstract sculptural forms. 

 

His works have been exhibited in many countries including Germany, America and Holland.
