Tbilisi Mural Fest: Transforming the City with Dynamic Murals
The Tbilisi Mural Fest is an event that, since its inception in 2019, has set out to turn the Georgian capital into a large public gallery. With the aim of transforming unattractive urban developments into giant works of art, the organisers, also known as TMF Studio, believe in the power of contemporary murals to beautify the urban environment.
Exploring Artistic Creativity in Tbilisi's Murals
Most of the recent works created for the festival are representative, depicting people engaged in activities such as grape harvesting or dancing. International artists bring a variety of styles to compositions that are often narrow and vertical, adorning the sides of multi-storey buildings. The murals, in addition to being visually appealing, contribute to creating a more welcoming urban environment.
Expanding the Tbilisi Mural Programme
With styles ranging from figurative to abstract, Tbilisi's mural programme expands every year, engaging viewers in commercial and residential areas. To learn more about the festival, visit its website and follow its Instagram account.
Notable artists include TMF Studio, Edoardo Ettorre, Afzan Pirzade, Besik Maziashvili, and Fintan Magee, who have left their mark on the city's walls with works such as «Concrete Horizons,» «The Most Sacred Connection of All,» «Girl in Mirrors,» and «Samaya.».
This mural festival not only beautifies Tbilisi's buildings, but also enriches the city's art scene, offering residents and visitors alike the opportunity to enjoy high-quality urban art on every corner.
