A mixed media study by Lali Lomtadze from the Republic of Georgia puts branches, transparent flowers and floating debris into a lacy composition that combines both the order and chaos of nature. It is one of a series by the Tbilisi artist in which she closely examines small bits of nature placed haphazardly into containers. Lali Lomtadze has had solo shows beginning in the mid 1980s in Japan, Sweden, Russia, Poland and Ukraine. Her work has been in joint exhibitions in the U.S., Germany, Denmark ...click for details

Influences from Tbilisi, where Asia blends with Europe, also inform his work, and he often includes no ...click for details
