The Silhouettes effacées (anonymous silhouettes) series is a central plank of Tsimba’s work. The busts tend to be made from cartridge cases collected in conflict zones, and pay tribute to the victims of war, by recreating their bodies and bringing them back to life. This is one of his few works to have been made from bottle caps. The depiction of pregnant women conveys a message of hope, as Tsimba tells us that despite everything, “life always prevails.”
