Acrylic, oil, pigment & textile on Soviet-era factory-produced biazi fabric mounted on cardboard
This abstract composition merges the precision of architectural thought with the fluidity of painting. The artist employs oil and acrylic on a reclaimed textile surface. He uses authentic Soviet-era biazi cotton, once used as ceiling coverings in domestic interiors. This choice transforms the artwork into a physical archive of memory.
Deep indigo tones dominate the center, creating a sense of vast, nocturnal space. A slender green line ascends toward a soft amber glow, suggesting a singular point of growth or light. To the right, ethereal washes of pink and lavender bleed into the dark ground. These forms evoke the fragile silhouette of floral petals or drifting mist.
The process relies on layering and absorption. The porous nature of the fabric allows colors to seep and merge. This technique mirrors the way history fades and lingers within a space. The rough edges of the textile remain visible, emphasizing the material origin of the piece. It is a meditative study on the remnants of the past. The visual tension exists between the heavy darkness and the luminosity of the pale pigments. Every brushstroke interacts with the history embedded in the fabric fibers.
Born in 1995 in Zugdidi, Georgia, Gela Mikava is a Georgian contemporary artist who lives and works in Tbilisi. Trained as an architect, he received his BA in Architecture from Georgian Technical University in 2018 and completed his MA in 2021. His artistic practice developed at the intersection of painting, material research, and installation, exploring the relationship between personal and collective memory, material history, and contemporary experience.
A distinctive element of Mikava's practice is his use of authentic Soviet-era biazi cotton fabric, reclaimed from old domestic interiors. Previously used as ceiling covering in Soviet-period homes, the fabric is carefully removed, cleaned, and transformed into a surface for painting. For the artist, this material functions as a form of archive, carrying traces of domestic life, time, use, and disappearance before becoming part of the artwork.
Mikava's practice is closely connected to his concept of “Post-Socialist Radiation," through which he examines the subtle psychological and aesthetic traces of Soviet ideology that continue to exist within contemporary life. Working across painting, textile, collage, and installation, he employs processes of layering, absorption, washing, peeling, obscuring, and erasure to explore how memory can remain embedded within materials and surfaces.
His projects include *The Bijouterie*, *Post-Alienation*, *Infanta Destruction*, *Predators & Herbivores*, *Artificial Flowers*, and *What Remains of Gesture*. His work has been presented internationally in Europe and the United States, including a solo exhibition *It is Heard — The Silence, I See — Nothing* in Atlanta in 2024. His work has also been presented at art fairs and exhibitions in London and is held in private and institutional collections, including the Lester Marks Collection.
