Taurai Valerie Mtake aka TaVaTake is an award winning designer who is particularly interested in the potential of Afrikan heritage in contemporary Afrikan visual culture, where traditional cultural practices have often become a staged authenticity in which the history of meaning in the objects and designs is often lost, sometimes even to the producers themselves. Owing to her undying passion for Afrika, in February 2018 she co-founded Nhaka Creative Agency, which aims to fill the gap in the market of producing edutainment material (edutainment and educational). Not only is this material innovative, but it’s also authentic and significant to Afrikans, their identity and cultural heritage. Taurai also owns TaVaTake Designs which she founded in 2011.
