ART: Blog - Khinkali Juice (khinkalijuice.blogspot.com)

Nadia Tsulukidze & Sophia Tabatadze
Performance, installation, movement, speech.

General Concept

In 2005 we, Nadia Tsulukidze (1976, performing arts/contemporary dance) and Sophia Tabatadze (1977, visual arts) decided to work together and combine different art disciplines. These are visual, media, movement, music and speech art forms combined in polyphonic way. In our performance/installations different disciplines play equal roles. The forms are there to supplement and support content and form rather than illustrate or decorate each other. Our work is always site-specific. Each performance is different depending on our reaction as well as characteristics of the space we use.Given that in the past few years borders between different disciplines within the contemporary art became thinner relevance and importance to create interdisciplinary projects grew.The themes of performances deal with social events surrounding us. The problems are not approached directly and aggressively but they go through the artistic processes and gain weight, humor and importance as we go along.The dramaturgy is based on the abstract principle and develops during the working process, mirroring specific social situations. We do not use written scenario beforehand. We work and bring into the discussion themes like male female dependence, cultural and professional habits, question Georgian toasting traditions, growing importance of the religion the blind copy-pasting from the West etc.
