Ukrainian culture has always been enriched by artists of different ethnicities, which worked and continue to work for the greater good of a united homeland. For David M. Sharashidze and
Gia Miminoshvili, which have lived in Ukraine for over two decades now, Kyiv became a second home.
Yet, at the same time it's very evident that their work is intricately interwoven with their motherland, Georgia. From the first glance you catch your breath while observing the works of a one-of-a-kind,

Ceramic compositions of Gia Miminoshvili, created with textured chamotte, smooth glaze and extra-glazed print, incite associations of ancient ritual grails. They're given a new form and a ring of everyday life. On the foreground comes the spirit of peace and harmony and it all resonates, echoes, amalgamates in one space, like voices of string instruments of a duet. There is sadness, contemplation and hope...
