Aida Muluneh often turns her attention to women of the African diaspora, emphasizing the links and disjunctures between generations, commemorating the sorrows and celebrating the victories in their lives. Her subjects convey graceful, yet strong, approaches to the vicissitudes of life within the African diaspora. In the nextcoming issue of the contemporary art magazine Crudelia? within the special about Contemporary African Art an entire page is devoted to this interesting artist, on cure of Marta Massaioli.
