In the wake of the Russian invasion in Ukraine, a multi-layered migration pattern has emerged. Armenia and Georgia, nestled in the heart of the South Caucasus, have become havens for Russian and Ukrainian migrants. The influx of these new players in the cultural scene has set off a seismic ripple across the region.
Who are these cultural actors? What stories do they bring with them? How have their artistic foot-prints transformed the local cultural canvas? Tigran Amiryan, founder and president of the Cultural and Social Narratives Laboratory, joins us today. As a semiologist and contemporary culture researcher, he unravels the threads of transformational processes in Armenia and Georgia.
