The collection’s inception is deeply intertwined with the current political climate in Georgia. Amidst the turbulent times brought about by the controversial “Russian Law,” which threatens the country’s Eurointegration, thousands of Georgians have taken to the streets in protest. This passionate movement for freedom and autonomy is mirrored in every stitch and seam of “Chaos and New Order.”

KALTBLUT Magazine has always been a vanguard of cultural and artistic expression, and this year, we had the honour of witnessing an evocative collection at Culture Week Tbilisi.

,,Traces of Distres” painfully illuminates abandoned houses that were once full of life, but are now soulless and abandoned. The instaliation focuses on abandoned, deserted villages or towns. This is the silent suffering caused by forced migration. Today, it is the pain of many countries, and has become one of the most severe problem in Georgia. Each portrait, like a cherished memory forced to abandon, a broken foundation and an old faded photo, a past that could not become the present, covered with a stoic smile, is a story of sadness. With this narrative, the audience confronts the harsh reality of exile, which, once experienced, is a constant, forced hardship for a person.

After the exile from Abkhazia the old woman had a lot of difficulty adjusting to the new reality. She continued to exist in a reality frozen in time. The loss of her own life, loved ones and home was so hard that she was only waiting for a hopeful news every day. The sense of anticipation and rejection of adapting to the new reality was so strong that after leaving the home, the only suitcase she left with she never unpacked, in hoping to return.
meanwhile, 7 years have passed. My grandmother died in 2001. The suitcase placed by her bed still ready to be taken back, was deeply imprinted in my memory.
(The item is kept as a family heirloom)
Dedicated to my grandmother, Nora Shushania

Lost Signal Tracking
Zurab Arabidze’s Multimedia Installation

Zurab Arabidze's multimedia project Lost Signal Tracking is a conceptual abstraction. The large-scale installation is built on the extension of object and space connections and occurs as existential metaphor. The viewer follows the dramaturgically developed exposition and successively stops in a tense, supportless space where there are only hints of the impermanent and the eternal, faces the wall of totalitarianism, then moves into a field of technological progress which is full of dangers and as if continues to search for a lost signal with accompanying psycho-emotional moods. Lost Signal Tracking continues such an important topic of contemporary art history as the conditionality of systems and their analytical criticism along with the search for artistic correspondences.
Zurab Arabidze's artistic experience is based on the theme of the minimalist form's relationship with space and its connections with different states, primary meanings. His art is concise and clear, sometimes characterized by a heavy severity where the symbols of barrier or wall and unpredictable, almost surreal exposure are important.
Zurab Arabidze is an artist whose oeuvre display precise links between materials, geometric forms, natural energies and video or photo images. Lost Signal Tracking is an interactive project that is carried out only with the participation of the viewer.
