Many months of working on this project, I'm finally almost there. In a week there will be an opening of the show that is also a graduation project from my MBA, where i had the pleasure to be the curator and a designer too.

Project's name is ‘Para-solitude: One as Many’ and it will take place in Paris, from the 6th to 11th of September. And here i am to invite those of you who'll be in the city at the time to come visit us in the gallery and see the works of our five astonishing artists.

What is our project about? Ask yourself these questions: "We often are curious about our individuality, what is it born from and how does it interact with our society?" "How do we function in groups while retaining our unique selves and whilst we strive for both - how do we achieve it?" And to all of us answers will be ambiguous and layered, n'est-ce pas?

Thus “Para-solitude” aims to question the conditions under which groups formed from individuals can be perceived as majoritarian control tools and what is their relationship with that very same individuality from which they were born.

As everything i do, this does sound unnecessarily complex 😅, and yet we have beautiful works on the show, that will speak of these ideas much better and in their own unique ways.

Make sure to come by! (watch the marketer in me flourish in these exclamation marks haha)

THE GOSPEL TRUTH
-
To what extent is the trend of hyper-positivity and enthusiasm
responsible for today’s prevalent misuse of anti-anxiety medications?
Researching an almost paranoiac rejection of negative emotions in our
visual language and everyday life, I want to bring attention
to a questionable industry that feeds off escapism and benzodiazepine
abuse. This project talks about the tyranny of modern enthusiasm,
aiming to show how an over-performative work culture, self-help market,
hyper-positive ideology, and prescription drugs are all pieces of the
same self-medicating puzzle.

STERILE DOGMA, a story of Nocturnus.
Design of my graduation thesis at KABK. For a proper look inside and to access the text please feel free to visit my page www.komnen.com or the web version of my thesis: https://kabk.github.io/go-theses-19-darchiashvili-mariam/ .

I might repeat myself, but:
“I am aware of myself. And, of course, the only things that are aware of themselves and conscious of their individuality are irritated eyes, cut fingers, sore teeth. A healthy eye, finger, tooth might as well not even be there. Isn't it clear that individual consciousness is just sickness?”
