LB°22 — Participants
ARKIVAt Galleri Syster there are several objects on display in collaboration with Korpilombolo Arts Association, one of these being a bread bin by woodcarver Tekeste Solomon Gebremariam.
With its many languages the bread bin, which usually spends its days in the restaurant in the Korpilombolo arts centre, serves as a beautiful symbol of the diversity of the Korpilombolo association itself.
Tekeste Solomon Gebremariam has studied architecture, archeology and restoration of art and museum objects as well as worked at the National Museum of Eritrea. He currently lives and works in Korpilombolo where his wood carvings are part of the local visual culture.
