Mariam Songhulashvili is a visual artist based in Tbilisi, Georgia, working primarily with generative and interactive time-based visual art. Their practice explores several themes: the perception of time and memory - especially focusing on the understanding of queer temporality; the boundaries between abstraction and narration -  exploring it in a sense of gamification of reality perception; and the experience of being surrounded by urban, liminal spaces. Collaboration is central to their practice, typically involving musicians and writers.

Have a safe way home. Tread carefully‘It’s been confirmed that the world has no edge, where do we go from here? ‘

‘Have a Safe Way Home. Tread Carefully’ is a one-hour meditative piece, heavily based on a text that explores the emotions of being on the road. The work tries to poetically capture the process of returning ‘home.’ Two voices - through both audio and written text - engage in a dialogue that leads to no  conclusion, except the reminder to tread carefully. In the process, however, they share something more important than the end point itself:

‘Show me -
The path I will get lost on.
The compass I cannot return with.
The sea I cannot sail across.

I am also forgiven for having the ability to endure more than was necessary.’
