Photography and Multimedia Museum in Georgia’s capital Tbilisi is hosting an exhibition under the theme Nóstos: The Day We Will Return, showcasing the works of 12 young Georgian photographers and visual artists, including Agenda.ge photographer Nino Alavidze.
The exhibition brings together the story of each author’s “journey into the geographical or metaphysical territories”, the Museum said, noting the artists’ works reflected the results of social crises, ecological disasters and wars, as well as the “influence and omnipresence of cyber reality”.
Alavidze’s photographic work, titled Overtones of Silence, illustrates mountains. The author describes her working process as “shooting, where I feel the best, what I love and excite me the most”, adding “all the periods of time that I have spent asking questions are concentrated in the mountains. There, I better filter the useful and useless things accumulated in me, I pair confusing answers with questions, I classify ideas.
In the mountains, time flows differently and unevenly. Silence has a special sound, with faint overtones. The night sky has a different texture, the morning has a different lightness”, she added.
The exhibition opened on March 28 and will host visitors until April 20.
