ABOUT                                       

Creating - means being alive!

​

Nata Buachidze is a contemporary artist from the city of Tbilisi, Georgia. Born on October 14, 1967 into a family of artists and architects, Nata’s destiny as an artist seemed etched into her very being, and was something very natural for her. As a child, her favorite pastime was to create - it did not matter what, she wanted to become connected to her brushes, to the smell of paint, to the sound of pencil on the paper; that is what she became when she grew up - an artist, and she’s more than happy with her choice.

 

Nata embarked on her artistic education at the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts, Graphic Design faculty, which she graduated from in 1990. In the early 90s, she pursued a Painting and Photography training course at Gray’s School of Art in Aberdeen, Scotland.

 

However, Nata was working as a graphic designer from 1985, first as a freelance designer, and her talents were soon recognized on an international stage, as she contributed her skills to notable companies such as ‘McElroy coats’ in Edinburgh, Scotland, and the Georgian-based ‘Racurs’ architectural and design company. Despite her immersion in the realm of design, she was painting fervently and taking part in local and international exhibitions. From 1993, she mainly devoted herself to painting, with occasional design commissions, and the transition from design commissions to an resolute focus on painting heralded an era of introspection and artistic authenticity.

In a notable chapter, Nata extended her influence to the realm of education. In 1999, she established the still thriving experimental art studio in her hometown of Tbilisi, which momentarily shifted the spotlight from her own artistic endeavors, to mainly being involved in the life of the studio, devoting herself to nurturing the next generation of creative minds, and organizing grand exhibitions connected with her passion project. 

 

Nata’s pure artistic spirit rekindled in 2017, and she reclaimed her seat as an artist with a renewed vigor which manifested in solo exhibitions, group showcases, and prestigious art fairs and Biennales. Her canvases began to tell stories of human emotion, urban energy, and ethereal beauty.

 

Today, Nata stands at the prime of her artistic journey to date, her creations coveted by private collectors across the globe. Nata’s oeuvre serves as an evolving testament to the spirit of an artist who, in her ceaseless pursuit of creative excellence, is carving an indelible mark on the canvas of contemporary art.
