Kidane Getaw Ethiopia, b. 1994
"My artworks serve as precise reflections of our world. Forms are contorted, liberated from conventional constraints, yet harmoniously intertwined with one another in captivating compositions."
His artistic essence is a tapestry woven from threads of the unknown, the unforeseen, and the visceral realities of life itself. Drawing inspiration from the enigmatic depths of his being, as well as from the stark truths and haunting fantasies that populate his psyche, Kidane masterfully distorts forms to craft compositions that seduce the eye with their aesthetic allure. Yet beneath the surface lies a profound commentary on the human experience: a poignant revelation that beauty often conceals the anguish of existence.
In the realm of nightmare fantasies, Kidane's art becomes a conduit for a spectrum of emotions, from dread to elation, from melancholy to euphoria. His work is a labyrinth of complexity, offering a mirror reflection of reality in all its intricacies. Through the medium of painting, he breathes life into distorted forms, infusing them with a kaleidoscope of colors that mesmerize and provoke contemplation alike. In each stroke, Kidane encapsulates the paradox of existence: a harmony of discord, a cacophony of silence, a symphony of truth obscured by the veneer of beauty.
