Alevtyna Kakhidze created this work using ink on paper. It’s a deliberately simple medium, reminiscent of illustrations in a child’s book. Yet, it uses this basic approach to address complex cultural matters. The stark contrast between the black lines and the white background, punctuated by splashes of red and green, creates a somewhat disquieting effect. The line quality has a directness to it. You can imagine the artist working quickly, capturing a fleeting moment. This immediacy lends the work a raw, almost journalistic feel, perfectly suited to its social commentary. The handmade quality of the drawing allows for a kind of authenticity that more polished, digitally rendered work might lack. It’s a powerful reminder that art doesn't need fancy materials to convey a message. The meaning of this piece lies not only in its concept, but in its conscious choice of materials and method. It brings the message directly to the viewer.
