Mamuka’s art style is heavily inspired by the traditional fresco technics found around Georgia, mixed with the elements of 20th century primitivist movement. His work is a blend of both ancient and modern, depicting images of the natural world in a way that feels both familiar and alien. His work focuses on capturing the essence of his subjects through color, line, and shape. He uses color to create moods, depict emotions, or simply enhance an image. Mikeladze’s work is not limited by time or place, but rather reflects his own interpretation of reality and our place in it. His work also heavily utilizes technical aspects of traditional fresco paintings utilizing raw pigments to create a texture and vibrant colors found in all of his paintings.
