Constructive-decorative composition 1924

This "Constructive-decorative composition," probably made with mixed media, feels like a playful experiment with form and material. Kakabadzé approaches artmaking as a process of construction, layering elements to create a whimsical, almost cartoonish figure. The use of varied materials—metal, paint, and found objects—adds a tactile quality. I'm drawn to the contrast between the smooth, silvery disc and the textured, brown shape with its polka dots. It's as if he's playing with the idea of depth, pushing and pulling our gaze. That glowing orb at the bottom right? It's so mysterious! Is it a light source, or some kind of otherworldly presence? Maybe Kakabadzé was thinking about the cosmos. This piece reminds me of Joan Miró, both artists make art that feels like a conversation with the subconscious. It is a reminder that art is a playground for experimentation, where fixed meanings dissolve into a sea of possibilities.
