Description

Chavchavadze’s work examines forgotten history through mixed media including drawings, paintings, assemblages, and digital work. This work “reactivates the life of the American writer Margaret Fuller (1810 - 1850) … I create mixed media paintings, assemblages, digital prints, and publications … that express the pathos and power of Fuller’s life and work. …Her book Woman in the Nineteenth Century (1845) was the first American book on women’s rights, and a catalyst of the American Suffrage movement.” From the artist’s website, October 2023.
