Editorial – Issue 80
January unfolds as a territory of beginnings, a space where everything becomes possible once again. In art, that beginning often appears as a blank canvas, but also as an essential question: from where do we look? Color emerges as the first gesture, the first heartbeat. It is not a mere visual resource, but a profound language that runs through the history of art and the human experience, capable of moving us even before it is fully understood.
MODERN SCULPTOR OF ABSTRACT-INTUITIVE DIRECTION: Nino Samadashvili
From an early age, Nino Samadashvili developed a deep relationship with observation and imagination. Looking out the window was never a simple, everyday act, but a creative exercise. In that space between interior and exterior, creatures, scenes, and entire worlds were born within her thoughts. Observing the life of her own ideas became a natural practice. When visual art entered her life, it arrived as a revelation, a doorway into a new world where those visions could take form on paper and through modeled materials. For a child, realizing that thoughts could become physical was a transformative experience.

The Voice of Inspiration: Ania Tomicka

Editorial – Issue 78
Our cover embodies this perfectly: Marissa Oosterlee. Her art, intense, technical and profoundly human, reflects that search for truth that we value so deeply. Her portraits, often submerged in water, invite us to look beyond the surface. In every face she paints there is a calm that arrives after the storm, a reminder that beauty is not found in perfection but in the sincerity of the process.
