Abebe Solomon Bekele
Self-taught textiles artist
- 🇪🇹 Bahir Dar, Amhara, Ethiopia
- The Bahir Dar Art Collective
- Since 1999
- English
I work mostly in textiles, sometimes oil painting. My first show was in 1999 at The Bahir Dar Art Collective, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
I also teach a weekly class at The Bahir Dar Art Collective, which keeps me honest.

If you've bought a piece of mine, thank you. It's on someone's wall and that still amazes me.

What gifts mean to Abebe: I'd put a gift toward a kiln repair. It's been a long time coming.
