Art Conference Tbilisi / Maria & Thomas presents The Secret Meadow, a solo show by Ioanna Tsulaia.
The Secret Meadow (საიდუმლო მინდორი) unfolds as a psychological and tactile sanctuary, a
contemporary landscape in which the invisible is made tangible. Curated by Mariam Kakitashvili, the
exhibition brings together a series of new works that revolve around a unified emotional and
conceptual axis. Within this space, fragile, internal, and often quiet experiences are transformed into
concrete yet abstract visual forms. The “meadow” becomes a metaphor for a hidden and protected
inner world.
Ioanna Tsulaia (b. 1998) is a multimedia artist whose practice is grounded in rigorous, material-led
inquiry. Her work is marked by a balance between intuitive formation and conceptual precision.
Working through distinct thematic series, Tsulaia investigates questions of form and visual language,
treating materials both as independent agents and as relational structures. Her practice frequently
addresses womanhood, the body, intimacy, and social taboo, while also engaging with ecology and
cultural memory.
At the core of The Secret Meadow lies a profound tension between the fleeting nature of internal
experience and the persistent materiality of the physical world. This very threshold is symbolically
embodied by the semi-transparent self-adhesive film, which serves as the primary material of the
series.
In this series, Tsulaia explores the juxtaposition of highly contrasting materials to reconstruct a
traditional image through a contemporary lens.
The central premise of the series is to play upon the viewer's emotions. The Secret Meadow invites
viewers into a quiet, densely textured space, where the viewer herself contextualizes what is given. It
considers how the subject adapts to indeterminacy and generates meaning. Self-adhesive film
functions as a semi-transparent barrier between memory, the imaginary, and the image itself.
