Sew'net  Collection

Artists: Yeabtsega Getachew and Harerta Teklu​. Captions and narration by Kalkidan Getnet.
​
A daring collection that brought digital art to life. The title is a compound word that​ means "human truth" in Amharic. Three artists, Yeabtsega, Harerta, and Kalkidan​ inspired by the diversity of human experience, collaborated to create a work of​ art that would explore the many ways that people can be human. The exhibition that took place at KIKUNDI Gallery in 2023 used a variety of media, including digital art, contemporary dance, poetry, and fashion. 

Each piece of art explored a different aspect of human truth through the four elements of being:  fire, water, wind, and air.​

Type of art: Canvas prints of digital art, stretched around pinewood bar and framed.​

'Does soil remember man by the taste of his flesh it consumes?

Or by the nails that dug deep into its soul to place a seed of life?'

- Kalkidan Getnet
