Vajiko Chachkhiani is a Georgian artist whose work mostly involves film, sculpture, photography and visual installations. Currently he lives and works in Berlin, Germany and Tbilisi, Georgia. Chachkhiani's work has been shown at the Venice Biennale. [1]
Vajiko Chachkhiani was born in Tbilisi, Georgia. [2] He studied Mathematics and Informatics at the Georgian Technical University, Tbilisi, before turning to Fine Arts, which he studied at Universität der Künste, Berlin, Germany and Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
At the Venice Biennale in 2017, he showcased a Georgian log cabin, that he received from the mining town of Chiatura. [1] The cabin was filled with typical furniture and ordinary objects. Eventually, the rain started getting inside the work, causing moss to grow and creating an inversion between inside and outside. The title "A Living Dog in the Midst of Dead Lions" probably relates to the exhibition's location in Venice, whose symbol is the lion. [3] [ failed verification ] [4] [5] (subscription required)
At the Bonn Art and Exhibition Hall of the Federal Republic of Germany (also known as the Bundeskunsthalle) in 2018, Chachkhiani showed the disturbing story of a family in the short-film "Heavy Metal Honey". The film starts with a quiet family meeting and turns unreal when the mother starts shooting the family members. In the ending, everyone is sitting unharmed at the table. [6]
