DRO|TIME invites New York audiences to traverse the emotional and cultural landscapes shaped by Georgian multidisciplinary artist Keti Davlianidze, whose practice stands at the intersection of memory, identity, and transformation. With a voice rooted in the personal yet resonant on a universal level, Davlianidze’s work reflects the layered complexities of displacement, resilience, and longing—offering an intimate space for reflection amid a global atmosphere marked by conflict, fragmentation, and change.
Born in Tbilisi in 1976, Keti Davlianidze is a leading contemporary Georgian artist whose artistic journey spans decades and mediums. A graduate of the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts and Sergo Kobuladze’s studio, she masterfully weaves together painting, drawing, illustration, sculpture, photography, and multimedia in a language that is both sensitive and bold.
Keti Davlianidze has participated in a number of group and personal exhibitions both in Georgia and abroad. Her work has garnered international recognition and is held in prominent private and public collections across the United States, China, Spain, Italy, Austria, and Bulgaria. In her home country of Georgia, her works are included in the Sighnaghi National Museum and in the permanent collection of the Georgian Museum of Fine Arts, among others. This wide-reaching presence speaks to the universal language of her practice—one that resonates across cultures, geographies, and generations.
Davlianidze’s practice reveals a persistent search for meaning and continuity in the face of rupture. Whether through a fluid line or sculptural form, she captures the intangible: the echo of unspoken histories, the feeling of places left behind, and the silent strength that emerges in navigating life between worlds.
Presented in New York—a city shaped by migration, reinvention, and cultural intersection—this exhibition becomes a shared space of resonance. Davlianidze’s work speaks to anyone who has known the pain of separation, the beauty of persistence, and the quiet power of remembering. There is a poetic clarity in her ability to hold opposing forces—absence and presence, fragility and strength, sorrow and hope—in a single frame.
This exhibition is a gesture of solidarity through art—a way of affirming continuity, connection, and the enduring human capacity to imagine and feel across distance.
In a time of global instability, Davlianidze reminds us that we remain bound—however distant—by shared experiences and enduring human connections.
