Dioskouria
Dioskouria
This painting is set in Sukhumi, a place shaped by layered histories and suspended time. The harbor is named Dioskouria, referencing the ancient Greek port once founded here as a point of trade and connection with Europe.
A solitary woman stands on the pier, seemingly waiting for a boat, yet the moment remains unresolved. Time feels paused—caught between what once existed and what is no longer clearly accessible.
Dioskouria functions here as a symbol rather than a literal reference, evoking deep historical ties with Europe that are no longer visible but still felt. Within this uncertainty, the work carries a quiet sense of hope—not as promise, but as endurance and belief in continuity.
