Project Proposal - Georgian Pavilion for Venice Architecture Biennale 2023.
When building an inclusive society, it is important to understand the cases of communication and miscommunication that took place in Georgia's recent past.Observing the cases of conflict in Abkhazia and Tskhinvali regions, one notices that the artificially established dividing line, which spatially divides the territory, is incapable of completely separating the people remaining on the two sides of the line. There are objects where the desire for communication in the divided society is materialized.These objects represent architectural monuments of national importance, memorials, intangible customs, geographical places, and already implemented or ongoing projects, which are considered artifacts of collective memory.They carry cultural, social, religious, or economic implications and play a key role in connecting distanced members of society.
