Artist Biography

Tizta Berhanu graduated in 2013 from the Alle School of Fine Arts and Design, Addis Ababa University.
Her 2024 solo exhibition Agape at Addis Fine Art takes its title from the Ancient Greek word denoting the highest form of divine, enduring love — one that transcends obstacles and circumstance.
Her work has been exhibited in Nigeria, South Africa, Sweden, and the United States, including three solo presentations with Addis Fine Art : Heber (Addis Ababa, 2021), The Armory Show (New York, 2021), and Synthesis of Souls (London, 2023).

Message from Artist

I am deeply honoured to have been nominated of THE TOYOTA TSUSHO CFAO African Art Award. It means a great deal to have my work recognised within this context, and to be in dialogue with so many inspiring artists from across the continent. I'm very grateful for the platform the award creates, and for the opportunity to share my practice with wider audiences through the forthcoming exhibitions.
