Nina Kintsurashvili

Nina Kintsurashvili, born in Tbilisi in 1992 and currently residing in New York, is a painter whose work is profoundly influenced by her early exposure to the restoration of religious artworks, as her father was a fresco restorer. Her artistic practice revolves around the memory of images and their transmission, often blending abstraction with figuration through layers of gestures that evoke themes of recognition and uncertainty. Kintsurashvili's unique perspective on art history, shaped by limited access to original works during her upbringing in Georgia, informs her exploration of cultural transmission and visual narratives. In Tunisia, she continues to investigate these themes, resonating with the historical and architectural context of the city.
