Portia Zvavahera: Like Flowers We Fade

Portia Zvavahera: Like Flowers We Fade presents paintings by Portia Zvavahera, a Zimbabwean artist known for dreamlike compositions that draw from spiritual experience, memory, and inner life. Working in painting, Zvavahera creates densely layered scenes in which figures, patterns, and color move between intimacy, vulnerability, and transcendence. Fondazione Memmo, Via Fontanella Borghese 56b, 00186 Rome, Italy. April 29, 2026 — Runs through November 1, 2026. Fondazione Memmo describes the exhibition as Zvavahera’s first institutional presentation in Italy, and the project is curated by Alessio Antoniolli. The exhibition extends the artist’s growing international visibility while situating her work within a major contemporary art venue in Rome. One note on the coordinates: these come from geotagged image metadata for Via della Fontanella Borghese 56, which is effectively the same street address block as Fondazione Memmo’s 56b listing, so they should be very close to the venue entrance.
