BIOGRAPHY

Merab Surviladze is a contemporary Georgian painter whose work presents a unique version of abstract art, conceptually rooted in the philosophical metaphor of the shadow. Educated at the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts, as well as La Cambre and the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, he developed a radical stylistic departure from traditional motifs.
Surviladze’s practice breaks the boundaries of classical painting by integrating handmade acrylic figurines, creating a striking three-dimensional effect and a dynamic interplay of shadow on canvas. Showcased in numerous exhibitions and art fairs across Europe, his paintings serve as profound visual meditations on the human condition. The artist currently lives and works in Brussels.
