Read More'I am interested in painting practice not as a medium of image creation, not in a surface but in a space where I can develop a conversation, activate conflict zones and be in constant revelation of what a painting could be. Avoiding the idea that an image has a fixed end or a fixed viewing point, neither category nor predefined identity, I explore sensation of movement, varying tempo and transparency within the realm of canvas. I want my painting to dominate subject matter but intensity of content and juxtaposition of meanings and/or open-ended questions are integral parts of my practice. Experience of painting carries more truthfulness than empirical truth itself, such experience leading towards beauty, recognition of which is primal, instant and sensorial.'— Nino Kapanadze
