Alemayehu Wariyo (1979) -- Fine Art

Artist Profile

Alemayehu Regassa Wariyo

 

Alemayehu Regassa Wariyo

Nature is a secret and the secret has no end. Through it we discover various gifts in abundance, of which man can never fully exploit.

I would like to say that art and life are the same in feeling and the separation of one from the other is impossible. In the beginning for me art was an expression of feeling in a given time and space but through experience I have discovered myself in the process and art has become not what I express but what I live.

I am here for the sake of life a life so fantastic, beautiful and natural, which everybody deserves. In a sense, art is a means of widening the horizon of thinking and understanding of human beings for the creation of a civilized society a society which can live in harmony with nature.
