Story behind:
The design Inzovu („elephant“ in one of major languages of Zambia) came into being day 2004 during a workshop in Zambia/Central Africa as kind of pictorial diary containing the most inspiring moments each day. Walking through African bush I came across an old wrapping of Inzovu-beer. The package had once contained inexpensive popular beer made from corn, which was favourite local population on holidays during meetings friends.
I attracted by picturesque character of that and I started working it colours. The other writing „Insaka“ means place in African village or a building, where people meet to discuss celebrate.
