Blue Under constraction Painting

Born and live in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia 1975, After graduating from the Addis Ababa University’s School of Fine Arts and Design in 2003, i went on to do some graphic designing and experimental art workshops. Before becoming a full time studio artist, I dabbled in a number of vocations including building bodies for cars, wood work and electronics. Though i may have found employment, my love for art and my dedication to it did not falter. The work that I did at the various jobs that I'm held influenced My’ art. The skills that i honed in my various vocations came in handy when I was asked to participate in the building of the Zemen Bank Kora Bull. The sculpture, the first if its kind in the country, was a difficult long term project that took the creativity and genius of a number of artists. Im also worked on a number of other large scale group projects using media ranging from wood and metal , cement sculptures to mosaic. Having participated in a number of group as well as solo exhibitions
