Maia Naveriani, Balloons, 2005
Reminiscent of some road movies, 'Unwheeled' sees three old friends who all grew up and learnt their craft in their native Georgia, and who all left for the West around 1990, come back together to grind their personal, aesthetic and political axes. Their roots and trajectories bring them here, their painting, sculpture and drawing desperate in its failing attempts to penetrate the sociocultural forest, or find ways of representing the human theatre.
