Description
Ink on paper
This composition evokes the solemnity of a classical vanity painting. A stark contrast defines the scene. Deep shadows swallow the background. Pure light carves out the organic forms. Two fish hang suspended. Their pale bodies possess a ghostlike quality. Beside them, a coil of rope and a cluster of grapes add tactile variety. Each element is rendered with a focused intensity. The artist employs oil to build a dense atmosphere. The brushwork is precise yet atmospheric. He navigates the tension between traditional stillness and contemporary expression. There is a poignant meditation on decay and time. The arrangement suggests a quiet kitchen or a rustic cellar. The verticality of the composition guides the eye through a study of texture. It balances the weighty presence of the fish against the void of the dark space. This artwork transforms simple organic matter into a timeless reflection on existence. The palette remains restricted. This choice emphasizes the dramatic interplay of light and shadow. A single glass vessel sits to the right. It completes a scene rooted in observation and imagination.
Presentation
Ilia Menabde is a Georgian painter born in 2003 who lives and works in Tbilisi, Georgia. His practice explores the relationship between memory, time, place, and contemporary experience. He graduated from the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts in 2026 and currently works from a temporary studio in Tbilisi. Working primarily with oil on canvas, Menabde approaches painting as an evolving process of experimentation. His practice draws upon diverse historical periods, visual references, and the environments that surround him, which he reinterprets through a personal and contemporary language. Rather than adhering to a single stylistic approach, he continuously explores new techniques, compositions, textures, and ways of constructing the painted image. Menabde’s work reflects the perspective of a young artist navigating the tension between inherited artistic traditions and the rapidly changing visual culture of the present. His paintings combine observation, imagination, and experimentation, creating spaces in which different temporal and emotional references can coexist. He has participated in several group exhibitions in Tbilisi, and his works are held in private collections.
