Village Whispers

We’re pleased to invite you to “Village Whispers: Memory and Property,” a solo painting exhibition by Mikiyas Abera at Artawi Gallery.

Rooted in the narratives of his village and community, Mikiyas Abera’s work explores the stories, memories, and emotional landscapes that shape everyday life. Through expressive figures, layered colors, icons, and patterns, the paintings reflect the beauty, struggles, hopes, and connections embedded in personal and collective experience.
