R1500Hlungwani’s body of sculpture articulates his spiritual journey, his insights, and his world in three-dimensional form aiding him in his life’s mission as orator, teacher, healer, and visionary.

His numinous world was then directed to his community in his teachings, and beyond, as he freely shared his vision of a new world order.
