Selam Tesfai
Sculpture Artist | Visionary of Peace
Born amidst conflict, Selam Tesfai’s life and art are powerful narratives of resilience, hope, and the unyielding pursuit of peace. Named "Selam," meaning "peace" in her homeland of Eritrea, she embodies the profound aspirations of her parents, who were freedom fighters during Eritrea's struggle for independence.
Raised in the tumultuous landscape of Sudan, where her parents sought refuge during the war, Selam's formative years were deeply influenced by their courage and determination. These experiences shaped her soul, igniting a passion to honor their legacy and her people’s fight for justice through art.
Selam’s signature sculptures, Spirit Warriors, are compelling creations that symbolize strength, courage, and the universal yearning for peace. Inspired by the indomitable spirit of those who fight for a better world—physically and spiritually—her work channels the essence of her parents’ sacrifices and the resilience of humanity.
For Selam, peace is not merely a concept; it is a life philosophy and a daily commitment. Her art invites viewers to see themselves as Spirit Warriors—guardians of peace and defenders of humanity. Through her powerful sculptures, Selam Tesfai carries her message to the world, inspiring others to find strength and purpose in the pursuit of liberty and justice.
