"My art is a manifestation of abstracted, distilled truth!"

Nestan Mikeladze (b. August 22, 1986) is a Georgian-born artist, based in Tbilisi.

She had her first solo show in 2015, and since then her works have been exhibited in various group shows in different cities, like Paris, Madrid, Berlin, and New York. 

She is constantly in the process of work and research, which is proven by her experiments. Working in different mediums is always interesting for her. Her art always involves exploration and self-observation. Nestan’s approach to make forms combining gradient color pallette evokes strong feelings in the viewer. Working in different mediums gives the artist an opportunity to make her expressions more vivid and emotional and gives the audience a chance to better understand her work.

Her works have been featured in art magazines, journals and art and culture related platforms.

She has received mentorship from Dr. Christianna Bonin, critic at Artforum and curator of Art Dubai Modern 2024.

In 2023 she has successfully passed full time artist-in-residency program at Ria Keburia Foundation, which was followed by her solo show at the foundation.
