She left Ethiopia as a teenager, moved to the U.S. in 1967, studied at the Art Students League in New York, and built a body of work centered on Ethiopian and African women - she's noted for pieces like "Nubian Woman" (2007), which fits perfectly alongside your 2005-dated piece. She named Skunder Boghossian and Julie Mehretu (both major Ethiopian-diaspora artists) as key influences, and that lineage shows clearly here - bold color-blocked backgrounds, elongated stylized faces, and rich use of pattern and adornment (beading, henna-style markings, jewelry) rooted in East African visual traditions.

A two-panel painting (diptych) on wood panels, done in a bold, folk-art/expressionist style. On the left panel, an elongated, mask-like male figure with a top hat rendered in warm ochre and maroon tones faces a small yellow bird. The right panel shows a profile figure with a stylized, elongated face and a nude torso in coral/crimson, set against pale blue vertical forms resembling totemic shapes or serpentine lines. Both panels share a deep blue, layered background with a horizontal band of yellow near the base, unifying the two panels as a single composition.
On the back of the panel is a second diptych, this one on a hand-painted blue wood frame (hinged like a small altarpiece or book). The left panel shows a nude female figure in coral pink and olive tones, with an elongated neck and a stylized profile face crowned by a swept, scaled green headdress reminiscent of a bird or reptile crest - heavy-lidded, dramatically lashed eye rendered almost Egyptian in style. The right panel presents a more abstract, fleshy vertical form - a serpentine, ribbed pink-and-mauve shape topped with a coiled, eye-like spiral and a small triangular fin or axe-blade shape with two metallic rivet/stud details, ending in what reads as a foot or root form at the base.
Both panels are signed "MURUA" in block print in the lower right corner matching the visual language of Chilean painter Mario Murua (b. 1952, Valparaso), whose surrealist practice - rooted in the "Magia Imagen" circle around Wifredo Lam and Roberto Matta, and self-described as drawing on Diaguita (Indigenous Chilean) visual heritage - is known for exactly this kind of elongated, mask-like figuration and saturated tropical palette.

Description by the artist: In this varied edition series, three people are building relationships with each other and collaborating to transform their future. Each person is holding an individual piece of a puzzle. Each figure is focused on a separate, yet complimentary pathway towards a shared goal. This series is derived from a social justice art poster that was commissioned by Amnesty International in 2016. In the edition, I reworked the original composition and experimented by adding playful and intuitive layers of colors, shapes, and textures that disrupt and recreate the flow of the piece. It was an opportunity for me to move from a formal and direct style of communication towards a more interpretive and expansive language. Each piece in the edition is both a destruction and a reimagination of its original composition. I reorganized, ripped, dissected, and dramatically recomposed the figures in the piece, as a metaphor for challenging our own assumptions about what constitutes as "social justice art." The various layers of collaged monotypes are metaphors for lightness, darkness and complexity, and how we as humans can experience all of the emotions along that spectrum.

In direct contrast, the lower half moves into a structured diamond grid pattern where each cell is marked with a clean "X" pattern, creating a subtle visual dialogue mirroring the playful "hugs and kisses" (Xs and Os) of the title. The piece features two identifying labels on the back and comes housed in a prominent white gallery mat and a minimal deep black exhibition frame. 25.5in x 26.5in

This piece is an authentic Wixarika (Huichol) yarn painting originating from the Sierra Madre Occidental region of Mexico. Produced during the mid-to-late 20th century, this traditional sacred art form is meticulously crafted by pressing brightly colored, polychrome yarn strands into a base of beeswax and pine resin spread over a wooden board.The composition serves as a nierika-a sacred threshold or portal-visually documenting complex elements of Huichol shamanic cosmology and mythology. At the center sits a stylized, radiating sun deity (Tawexika), watching over an intricate narrative arrangement of core spiritual symbols. Key motifs include a central animal figure (often the sacred deer, Kauyumari), geometric fire and candle elements used in ceremonial rituals, and stylized local flora and fauna. The vibrant palette relies on intense reds, bright yellows, deep purples, and teals to map out the artist's visionary or meditative experience.Beautifully preserved and framed in a light wood gallery presentation box that showcases the dimensional quality of the layered yarn lines, this piece is a striking, highly collectible example of Mexican indigenous folk art heritage. 28in x 28in
