Gvantsa Jishkariani is an artist whose primary medium is installation and video. Her work addresses first and foremost the temporary nature of the paradox that arises when searching for concrete definitions of right and wrong, east and west, old and new, art and design. Through her installations, videos and sculptures she takes traditional notions of cultural identity, ancient views, paradoxical beliefs and superstitions and ironically turns them inside out.
