b. 1992, Ethiopia
Selome Muleta (b. 1992) is one of the most exciting young female artists to emerge from the Ethiopian visual arts scene in recent years. Now based in Addis Ababa, Muleta studied art formally at the Abyssinia Fine Art School (2012) and Entoto Polytechnic College (2013-2014). Throughout her latest body of work, Selome merges portraiture with still life in a meditative exploration of womanhood and interiority.
