‚Semina Worq or Wax and Gold‘; ‚Qine‘; and ‚Andemta‘ are among the richest aspects of the languages of Amharic which is the national language of Ethiopia and its origin Geez. These idiomatic articulations of ideas that are characterized by economy of words are, however, overwhelming in generating a multiplicity of views or images or reactions tied over a single idea. At times, the views or images or reactions originating from the articulations may also suggest points that depart from the theme of the idiom. And of course it’s quite obvious that layered of meanings play amplifying and explanatory role. But, the aforementioned oral aspect of our language has got an influence on how I create and shape the essence of my works. Hence, my works can be envisioned through such visual and linguistic panorama<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mainly living in a globe with enormous diversity in culture, religion and language have helped me as an artist to observe and capture the color harmony and all this diversity brings. As an artist, I focus on developing paintings that speak both to me and to others about the beauty that exists in our environment and in our self\u2019s. The thing that Intrigues me the most is the way colors play major role in our everyday life. As part of my process before I begin painting, I prefer to observe because in this fast moving world one needs to be there to slow it down and see the perfection in every frame and in every fraction of seconds. I prefer oil paint because it helps me to capture this perfection gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even in place where dust and poverty dominates you see the boldest dominating colors either in one\u2019s clothing or as a decorative ingredient. I am always baffled by the colorful spectrum that exists in market places, public transport platforms, people expressions in this places and their relationship with nature; I do not merely want to capture the image with my brushes; rather, with careful colorful strokes. The challenge, as with any moment, is not to exaggerate it, instead capture it in all its glory as I perceived it i.e. I want my artwork to speak, not only for me, but for people who are silenced by economic, cultural and political issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
