Inspired by the distinctive lip plates worn by some communities of Ethiopia’s Omo Valley, the House of Omo Tee highlights one of the region’s most recognizable forms of traditional adornment.
The artwork draws attention to the lip plate not merely as an ornament, but as an expression of beauty, identity, and cultural tradition passed down through generations.
A different language of beauty. A tradition uniquely its own.
