THE ETHIOPIAN FEMALE PHOTOGRAPHER AIDA MULUNEH


Aida Muluneh (I didn't know that the name was popular outside of Senegal...)

You know what this pic makes me think of Cesaria Evora..it's like it captures her eternal melancolie..hun..interesting ..even thought it's not her..



Cab Scene in Ethiopia



Interesting shoot


The 33 year old Photographer has been keeping busy after graduating form Howard University in 2001 w/her bachelor's degree in music, film & radio...

She's been busy shooting beautiful pictures depicting the every day life in Ethiopia and being a photographic ambassador of her beautiful Ehiopia.

She's exposed her work in the States, in museums such as the African Contemporary Art Museum in NY (by the way that musuem seems quite interesting ..a lot of work by African artists...i'll provide link)
She also created an educational organisation called DESTA (Developing & Educating Societies through the Arts)...
Cool, anywhoo for those of you living in New York here's the web address of the museum:
