I was born in 1970 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I studied at the Addis Ababa University School of Fine Arts & Design and graduated with a diploma in painting in 1992. My works have been exhibited in Africa, Europe and the United States. I live and work in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I make art for two main reasons. The first is because I love to be engaged in creativity and enjoy the process of making art. The second reason is that I have an unquenchable thirst for expressing my feelings, life experiences, and interpretations of the natural world. The driving force behind my art has been my ongoing search for knowledge and experimentation for more effective artistic expression. Currently I feel that the painting process is becoming an act of meditation and contemplation, whereas the use of multi-media is becoming a flexible tool of artistic expression. When I experiment with different forms of media such as photography, installation, video or performance art, I always learn something new that leads to a greater awareness of my surroundings and myself. My artistic goal is to keep flowing like a river that picks up sediment, continuously incorporating new life into its own as it moves, changes and expands.
