Victor Mavedzenge is a Zimbabwean artist currently practising in Oakland, California.

He studied at The Slade School of Fine Art for a Master of Fine Art Degree-2008 -2010, London, England.

His work includes abstract paintings, sculpture,printmaking, performance art and explores video/animation.The idea of "being on the edge" is a central theme in his work as he explores the emotional response one gets from being in the situation. The final outcome is usually abstract representations delivered on textured backgrounds with strong linear quality and vivid colour.

Victor's artwork comes in various forms of abstraction and may be difficult to classify at the moment, but what is undeniable about this body of work is a vast array of influences from artists like, Basquiat, On Kawara and Picasso.

Victor continues to explore the art landscape,risking it all for a new approach,experimenting without hesitation, therefore the work may appear diametrically different. This in a lot of ways alludes to his background-exposed both to indigenous Zimbabwean life and Western life, he has a wide scope in which to choose his subjects and forms of expression from.
