Zuzumbo

Telavi is the city where I would happily live with my family. I've been here twice, both times to paint. During my first visit, my temporary home was in the Zuzumbo neighborhood. When I asked for the address, they simply told me, 'Just say Zuzumbo - everyone will know where to send you.' From the very beginning, the neighborhood's nickname made me feel at home. It was as if I had already become part of the city, referring to its districts like a true resident of Telavi.

Over time, the word Zuzumbo became a sound that I associated with Telavi itself. Today, I gave that word a visual form - one that perfectly reflects my emotional connection to this city.
