🎥 Fragments of the AV live performance by Zesknel & Mariam Songhulashvili at TKESHI Festival, hosted at in July 2025.
“Zesknel is the alias of Georgian musician Zurab Babunashvili.
Zesknel’s intuitively constructed live performances are based on ‘in-the-moment’ perceptions while often consisting of dynamic, abstracted and distorted soundsforms; evolving textures to drum-oriented polymetric explorations to looped vocal analyrics. A mix of contingent disruptions and conditions - integrated into the outcome. “
“ Mariam Songhulashvili is a multidisciplinary artist based in Tbilisi, Georgia, working primarily with generative and interactive time-based visual art. Their practice explores the boundaries between abstraction and narration, often incorporating text, archival materials, and imagery such as scans or satellite data which reflect on urban spaces. Collaboration is central to the practice, typically involving musicians and writers.”
