TORNIKE ROBAKIDZE (b. 1995 in Tbilsi, Georgia. Lives and works in Tbilsi, Georgia)

Represented by Lo Brutto Stahl

Tornike Robakidze applies his particular quotidian concern for the experience of life caught between dreaming and reality. He borrows signs and symbols from these states of being in order to capture the familiar and leverage it to his own end. Robaqidze thus slinks around in the shadows, capturing stills from life and filtering them onto the picture plane. He privileges color to color without the foundation of outlines, thus invoking his own penchant for nebulousness. Like the vacillation of saloon doors, his compositions swing back and forth between concrete semiotics and ambiguous interpretations.
