Born in Tbilisi, Georgia. Currently based in Moscow.
Graduated School of Contemporary art at Moscow Museum of Modern Art in 2021. I have been partisipating in the group exhibitions at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, CIA Fabrica, Masters Gallery.

I am attracted by everyday life, the relationship of a human and the space surrounding him. I have worked with fresco al secco, cyanotype and ceramics. Each work is an attempt to slow down and create a pause. 

For me fresco is a pause in time, which is why it is so important in our modern world, where high temporality does not allow creating a pause in art.

An anonymous fresco is a kind of archetype where the heroes of the works and people from the outside world find themselves, they unite in this lost blurred face and peer through it into themselves, into personal mythology.

I combine modern subjects with such monumental and archaic techniques in order to further “glorify” the moment of the present and the comonness. This is about experiencing something important that you want to keep in your memory.
