Nahom Teklehaimanot | Artist Overview

Nahom Teklehaimanot

b.1991, Ethiopian

As a believer in artistic freedom which revolves around the axis of society, culture, and politics, Nahom’s [b. 1991] works are an attempt to provide a voice to the unheard. He explores diverse genres of paintings with inspiration from his surroundings. Born in Addis Ababa , the self-taught artist was heavily influenced by the basic creativity of children’s songs and lullabies. Spending part of his formative years in Eritrea also impacted his artistry. His art has led him to solo and group shows with notable galleries within and beyond Africa including a group show with Chilli Art Project (England), Circle Art Gallery (Kenya) and Lela Gallery (Ethiopia). Nahom won 1st place at 2013 European Union Art Competition in the Professional Category in Eritrea.
