“The 80-ies” by Murtaz Shvelidze is a nostalgic and visually rhythmic serigraphy that reflects on the aesthetics, atmosphere, and cultural undertones of a transformative decade. Hand-pulled in a limited edition of 12, the silkscreen print captures the essence of the 1980s through a carefully balanced composition rich in tone, contrast, and mood.

With a background in both graphic and fine arts, his style bridges figuration and abstraction. In “The 80-ies”, Shvelidze doesn’t merely depict a decade—he evokes its spirit, offering a visual time capsule filled with personal and collective resonance.
