Tesfaye Urgessa, an Ethiopian artist based in Addis Ababa, explores socio-political themes including race, migration, and the impacts of war and displacement, influenced by political unrest in the artist's home country. Urgessa's works are currently representing Ethiopia at the Venice Biennale in the country's first ever pavilion, where his canvases feature symbols of war such as aircraft and weapons, alongside figures that embody resilience and vulnerability.
In a concurrent show at saatchiyates available to explore on Artsy, the artist's work deftly addresses contemporary issues of identity and domestic tension while referencing his classical training and Ethiopian iconography.

The Shadowless Church, also known as the Sino-French agricultural science and technology park in Chengdu, China, is a striking architectural marvel designed by Shanghai Dachuan Architects!
Inspired by the lavender fields of Provence and Impressionism, the design shows traditional forms in favor of expressing freedom, romance, and diversity through its minimalist structural elements and extensive use of pure, simple aluminum.
The church serves as the centerpiece, envisioned as a beam of light penetrating through the space, while the architecture seamlessly integrates ecological considerations and advanced lighting techniques to create a modern yet spiritually resonant environment!

Jefore (ጀፎረ)
Planned by leaders of the community hundreds of years ago “jefore” is a wide traditional road build in-between two neighborhoods With a width ranging from 100-200m.
Found in the Gurage zone of Ethiopia; Its Used for more than just transportation some of its uses include cultural activities like field hockey played during Christmas by the youth and religious activities like meskel damera festival.
This road provides the community a shared communal space where daily social, economical and political activities are carried out. Its hard not to mention the high value it adds to social and environmental sustainability.
