Kaleab Lemma
Today we are proud to present an artist from Ethiopia.
At first glance, they are works in different styles. But that is the first glance. At second glance, we realize that Kaleab is communicating with us in a meta-position. He combines the traditional art of Ethiopia with modern language in a skillful and beautiful way. And at the same time he shows something that has become very rare in art. Or perhaps something that only becomes clear through art. It shows that culture is universal. That we humans have something in common. That is what distinguishes Kaleab’s art.
