Bio
Ana Gzirishvili (1992 Tbilisi, Georgia) is an artist based in Tbilisi. Ana is a DAAD scholar and a graduate of Universität der Künste Berlin, New Media & Film Class led by professor Hito Steyerl. 
Throughout her experimental practice, focusing on sculpture, installation, and video, Ana has worked in various mediums ranging from lens-based media to CGI, from poetry to the spoken word and reading performances. Her art practice often examines the in-between spaces and points of touching of objects, places, and narratives through disassembling and reassembling them both physically and contextually.
