COMING BACK is in a broader sense, the coming back to ourselves during these times of greater reflection that give us pause to think about what truly makes us happy.
Lagidze’s message is to share experiences in harmony and gratitude. His works are full of life, crammed with energy, showing you something new every time. He paints within paintings – art within artworks; a mosaic of gems that make a masterpiece.

“Lagidze’s abstract paintings amplify the rich, cultural essence of his home country. Here you see the spectacular land and cityscapes of Georgia come alive with hidden colours, deep textures – works that go far beneath the surface.”

THE PROCESS
“Each painting takes at least one month to complete.
The canvas is prepped into a grid – each square has layers of paint applied. Using a paintbrush and a palette knife, Lagidze works into the layers to reveal multiple colours beneath until he is satisfied.”
“At the end of the process, he applies several layers of gloss to bring depth and life to the colours.”
“It is difficult to believe that the interim stage of the artwork belongs to its final version as Lagidze creates magic with the underlying paint layers.”
Work in progress for COMPOSITION NO. 26 from “My Journey” series (sold).

“Lagidze usually works with one square at a time, revealing the magic and layers beneath – hence every square of his paintings is a separate universe.
As an example to appreciate the depth and scale, look at the two small fragments below, both of which are from TREE IN MY GARDEN. Further below is the full painting and larger fragments.”
