King MAS – Age of Knowledge
KING MAS: It was an honor and a privilege to work with Mafuta “Max Afri” of AfriCreaxia productions. My #100DaysInafrica journey was a blessing in so many ways but one of the highlights was the reception I received in the district of Gutu in Masvingo province (Zimbabwe).
From the warm reception received by the people in the village streets to the many lessons I learned from the village head, I have been deeply enriched by the experiences I have had and I am grateful to have been granted access to sacred areas that few others have been given the honor to trod.
Blessings be upon each and every individual who played a part in the manifestation of this visual and I give homage to the ancestors who opened the way. Last but not least, I give thanks to my empress and her family for embracing me as a son of the soil.
