Luka Bakradze
a basement apartment in Tbilisi, Georgia
Luka Bakradze spends long days on oil rigs, working tirelessly in the grueling environment where precision is measured not just in tasks but in survival. In his spare time, back at his Tbilisi basement, he transforms his small, damp space into a workshop. With a vivid memory for faces but not names, he channels this paradox into his art, seeking permanence in the ephemeral.
