About Painting
Sergo Tbileli’s artwork “Meaning of Life” is a grand two piece composition that touches upon a lot of spiritual topics, its heavy composition embellished with symbolism. Starting from the shape of the artwork which is remising of the star of the David. The dark and powerful color combination that brings the heavy feeling that suffices the topic with the deep reds, tarnished yellow-browns and the dominating purple at the end of the painting make the viewer go thru alot of different emotions. All of that without even talkling about the figures and details of the painting.

Sergo Tbileli (Georgian, b. 1958) is a prolific contemporary artist whose career began in the early 1970s in Soviet Georgia, while he was still a student at the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts. During his studies he worked on monumental murals and sculptures across the Soviet Union, absorbing diverse styles on journeys throughout Eurasia and financing his early creative work through state commissions.
In his early career he worked extensively in ceramic, including his first plate series. He gained wide recognition with “Georgian Motives,” a body of work capturing the color and movement of Caucasus and Georgian mountain landscapes; the series sold out at a presentation in Istanbul. Following that success, Tbileli developed larger-scale compositions that combined his vivid palette and dynamic brushwork with mythic subjects and narrative themes. Major works from this period include “Venice Carnival” (2006) and “Nude” (2005).
