Parmen Daushvili

Parmen Daushvili masterfully captures the contemporary experience through the prism of daily routine. Lithe and loosely rendered, Daushvili’s introspective portraits and atmospheric interiors draw inspiration from his immediate surroundings: the cool, oblique London light that floods his beige and muted green flat; passers-by on his street; acquaintances and members of his immediate family. Reappearing motifs like the crocodile point to the artist’s biographical context – toward his experience of migration and displacement – and evoke a liminal state between ordinary life and a vivid dream state.

Daushvili (b. 1970) lives and works in London, UK. He has presented solo exhibitions at Polina Berlin Gallery, New York (2025, 2023); Ruttkowski;68, Düsseldorf, Germany (2025); Patricia Low Contemporary, Gstaad, Switzerland (2025); Nathalie Karg Gallery, New York (2024); and Grand Gallery, Malmö, Sweden (2023). His work has been included in the annual exhibitions of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, the Royal Society of British Artists and the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition. Daushvili was selected for inclusion in the BP Portrait Award (2014, 2019, 2020) at London’s National Portrait Gallery.

Tamo Jugeli

Eschewing any fixed meaning, Tamo Jugeli’s work approaches painting as an act in and of itself, contemplating states of becoming in both life and art. Her paintings proceed from her keen sense of intuition, guided only by instinct and memory. Form and color commingle, gestural marks abut flatly unadorned planes, fields of abstraction give way to familiar representational forms, whether still-life subjects or suggestions of the body. Emerging from a continual state of transformation, her paintings – and their making – speak to both the specificity and universality of being human.

Jugeli (b. 1994) lives and works in New York, NY. She has had solo exhibitions at Gladstone Gallery, Brussels (2025); Karma, Los Angeles (2025); Tanya Leighton Gallery, Berlin (2024); Polina Berlin Gallery, New York (2023, 2022); and Gallery Artbeat, Tbilisi (2022, 2020, 2019). Notable group exhibitions include Galerie Balice Hertling, Paris (2023); Hill Art Foundation, New York (2023); and Svaneti Museum of History and Ethnography, Mestia, Georgia (2021). Jugeli’s work is in the collections of the Hessel Museum of Art, Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York; the Hill Family Collection, New York; Alex Katz Foundation, New York; and the Delfina Foundation, London. Jugeli’s concurrent solo exhibitions at Karma, New York and Polina Berlin Gallery are on view now through April 30, 2026.
