Astral Sea I

The Astral Sea series is an extension of Tsedaye Makonnen’s work on transhistorical forced migration of Black communities across the globe. This series derives from Tsedaye's light sculptures, that consists of a large-scale installation made up of light towers that are described as obelisks (a node to Ethiopia's Axum created during the 4th-century CE), monuments and totems.
