A city is what the people who live in this city make of it. It is its people in all their variety. So painting a Tbilisi Portrait doesn’t mean one portrait, but a colourful compilation.
My name is Sarah Nieber and together with my teammate Sopho Sikharulidze we invite artists, activists, researchers and many more. We talk with them about their work, their life and their passion and by listening to their stories, we will paint a Tbilisi portrait.
