George Tkabladze
My art focuses on creating abstract and stylized stone, wood, bronze, clay and mixed media sculptures to embed particular themes and ideas, focusing on illuminating problems and stereotypes of modern-day society. Art is a universal language, therefore, in my artistic career, I put great emphasis on creating artwork with which I strive to find a common ground with everyone regardless of race, ethnicity, or religion. Purpose of my works is not to lecture, but rather to convey certain messages, and to shed light on certain global themes and issues that I believe everyone should be aware of. By doing so, I would like to send a gentle reminder of both the positive and negative issues that unify us, hoping to remind humankind of just how much power they possess to affect such circumstances.
