Tales and Dreams

By Mekbib Tadesse

The Tool is the Means; the Vision is the Work.

"Tales and Dreams" marks a shift from photography as capture to image-making as pure intention. By moving beyond the physical constraints of the lens, Mekbib Tadesse explores a landscape where meaning precedes the material. These Al-generated works occupy the same space as folk myths and oral histories-intangible in origin, yet profound in their impact on how we believe and behave.

The new age of seeing is not about the machine; it is about the evolution of the human eye.
