About

Micheal Hailu was born in 1999 in Ethiopia and is currently living and working in Vienna, Austria, having been awarded a prestigious scholarship at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. He graduated from the Ale School of Fine Arts at Addis Ababa University in 2022.

Hailu works across various media, including mixed media, photography, video, and installation. His art often critiques the disingenuity of the Ethiopian parliament, offering a voice to the true feelings and opinions of the people.

Declaring himself his own muse, Hailu frequently paints himself in female postures and figures, reflecting his exploration of social norms and questioning the concept of gender. Through his art, he examines whether gender is a social conditioning or a tradition passed down through generations.
