Where to Find Tbilisi's Stunning Street Art

Writer

Street art has a long and fascinating history and has been around the world for many decades. However, in Tbilisi its a relatively new trend. For many years, streets of the capital were covered with ordinary writings done with spray paint. Luckily, this has changed. With emerging local street artists Tbilisi now hides beautiful and captivating art in its backstreets and underground passways.

Dr. Love

Bacha Khoperia, known as Dr. Love has been making street art for 8 years and is already one of the most popular artists of the country. His famous mural, Girl while making a selfie, and a piece on air pollution brought him not only local but international recognition as he took part in many street art festivals abroad, including Bristol’s Upfest. His art pops up in many parts of Tbilisi, Kutaisi, and Batumi with the aim to spread love all around the globe.

Lamb

Mishiko Sulakauri, known as Lamb, creates hilarious and sarcastic artworks featuring a lamb in different situations. Most of his work is around the theme of Georgia, mainly dominated by Khinkali, the national dish of meat dumplings, religion and culture. The self-taught street artist got his nickname from his homeland, Tusheti, where sheep farming is the main source of income for families.
