Description | - New flower is a web-documentary project, an online platform that introduces critical voices about the accelerating urbanization of the capital of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa. -Helen, Mihret, and Mulugeta are three local artists with different personal relationships with, and therefore diverse thoughts about, the making of the ‘New -Capital of Africa’. And yet their voices all resonate with their deep concerns about the idea of ‘modernization’. This project challenges both the Ethio-pian and the Western concepts of development.
