Ephrem Solomon 'Untitled Life' Exhibition - 21.02.14 - 29.03.14
Tiwani Contemporary art gallery continues to bring us great works by African Artists. The latest and current exhibition is by Ethiopian Artists Ephrem Solomon.
Untitled Life, a selection of socio-political works using a combination of woodcut and mixed media. The exhibition is Solomon’s debut with Tiwani Contemporary and his first in London.
Untitled Life is an ambitious body of work that speaks not only to contemporary Ethiopia but also globally. Views of the city, its histories and the people that inhabit these spaces inform his practice. Solomon’s interest in a fictional world that exists beyond the present, and no one that is free from the limitations on anecdotal recordings are often represented through ‘untitled’ characters to maintain the anonymity of the subjects and to allow viewers to identify themselves within the work. The facial expressions of these characters are not directed at anyone in particular and suggest unshared, solitary emotions.
