The most arresting quality of Kenfe Michael's sculptures is that of the medium and the technique. Papier-mache has been used in a wide variety of applications, from elaborately decorated furnishings, or the simplest playful figurines and masks, to functional objects such as prefabricated papier-mâché houses and nose cones for fighter planes, until it was replaced by mass-production techniques of plaster and plastic. Kenfe Michael appropriately exploits papier-mâché, which has not been used, strictly speaking, as an artistic medium either by Ethiopians or by other artists, to the maximum. Newspaper, which since the turn of the century has been the basic material for development of papier-mâché, although the papier-mâché technique is as old as papermaking, is still the preferred material for Kenfe Michael's works. And Paris supplies the material in abundance. DEBRE HAYQ
