From Boys to Men: The Road to Healing by Anthony Gebrehiwot
The series of large-scale photographs exposes the necessary labour of unpacking learned behaviour attached to childhood trauma.
The metaphors meant through the selection of colour, texture, and emotional expression encourage the viewer to place themself within the poetry of masculine fragility.

My maternal grandmother Kathleen's (Kay) hand-painted Santa Christmas plate. She was a gifted artist. I have a number of her pieces.
My paternal grandmother painted beautiful plates too. #mastoart #canadianart
I work on my art when my dog allows. Mostly I draw wildlife in coloured pencil, and am very focused right now on birds — their lightness and energy. I use photographs for a reference (my own or with permission). I am not a hyper-realist, but I try to be true to what I see and to get across a sense of the animal’s vitality. The owl, here, is based on a photo by Otterly Wildlife Photography in a tutorial by Bonny Snowdon. #introduction #WildlifeArt #BirdArt #CanadianWildlife #CanadianArt
