Talk Description

Together, Elizabeth Giorgis, curator of Henok Melkamzer: Telsem Symbols and Imagery, and the artist Henok Melkamzer delve into the profound realm of telsem art.
Drawing inspiration from Ethiopian astrology, religion and spirituality, telsem intertwines symbols, drawings and texts imbued with deep philosophical significance. In this conversation, the curator and the artist offer us a rare insight into one of Ethiopia’s most compelling modernist art practices through Henok’s work.
