Besik Maziashvili

Besik Maziashvili is a Berlin based artist, known for his latest political art installation ‘65 degrees’. He was born in 1975, in Tbilisi, Georgia.

In his installation Maziashvili used a signpost erected by occupying forces in Georgia, leaning on a fragment of the original Berlin Wall covered in a mirror box. It represented the author’s take at underlining parallels from different eras, taking aim at a more general subject of borders, the display was an attempt to open up a space of resistance and critical imagination, where the transparent, immutable and essentialist representation of the border is challenged.
