I'm a woodcarving artist based in Hawassa. I've been making things from 1978 to 1989 and I still get excited when a new batch of materials arrives.
Most of my work is inspired by folk tales I grew up with. I fix old bicycles.
I never expected anything in return, but a kind word always makes my day.
More about Teklu
I've had 8 small exhibitions over the years. My favorite was the one with the worst lighting.

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

I bought one of your pieces in 1989. It's still the first thing I see in the morning.
