Ethiopian Art - Artist Zerihun Seyoum

This short slide show of stills is a fraction of what this great artist has to offer.
We really like what this man is doing and think that you will as well.
So many super images of Addis Ababa and Ethiopian.
Zerihun is inspired by his surroundings and creates from his feeling and emotions. He believes that there are still new ideas to discover and to explore after he creates each piece.  For him, art is always original in its expression of ideas and emotions, and he feels that there must inevitably be some connection between the viewer and the artist. With words there is always more to say, but to Zerihun, painting says so much more.
Zerihun is fearless in the way in which he chooses to explore colour, texture and composition. One of the first things to strike you about Zerihun's paintings is his use of bold colour and line to create a sense of energy and movement in each of his works. Some of his most memorable pieces illustrate how he sees the beautiful detail in how the traditional and modern convergence and clash in different spaces and environments; There are layers of imagery in Zerihun's compositions, in which history and current events overlap, and in which forms and figures exist in an almost dream-like, surreal and distorted environment. Some of his other most impactful pieces show he is clearly creating from his feelings, with emotions playing out like a living painting.
Zerihun takes a unique approach to art which comes from his dedication and passion to his craft and his respect for all artistic styles and all other artists. The current world of art is becoming increasingly dynamic and enriched locally and globally, through human interaction and through digital mediums. With no boundaries and through experimenting with mediums, ideas and space, his passion to promote art helps to shape the art world as it colourfully and beautifully emerges in the present day.
