Born in 1988, Addis Ababa, Yonatan Wondwosen uses meticulous collage and Painting techniques on paper or canvas to create precise and detailed works. The artist seeks to record and commemorate the present that provides a glimpse into the future. To give forms to unknown or invisible things. Often these things are emotions and thoughts of man, either in the present state or those which cause growth or change. Behind his big doors painting, he imagines all kind of activities giving him the feeling that they are orchestrated to create a musicality.
