Taras Schewcenko
A haunting and fragmented portrait rendered in two separate canvases, Wekua's work evokes a sense of dislocation and psychological tension through its divided composition. The oil paint is applied with a restrained yet expressive hand, creating a surface that feels simultaneously intimate and estranged. Wekua draws on art historical traditions of portraiture while subverting them, reflecting his broader interest in memory, identity, and the ruptures of personal and collective history.
