View the May art exhibit "At the Red-Blue Threshold," a multi-media art exhibit by Davit Botch!

Davit Botchorishvili (Botch) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores attention, perception, and the environments that shape human experience. Born in the Republic of Georgia and now based in the United States, his practice emerges from lived experiences of displacement, identity, and reconstruction. Working across painting, photography, sculpture, and installation, he creates perceptual thresholds—spaces where attention slows and awareness deepens.

In this exhibition, fields of blue are interrupted by traces of red, forming a quiet tension in which perception begins to shift and the sense of self becomes fluid. Rather than representing identity, the works invite it to emerge through duration, structure, and sustained looking.

Artist's talk: Sat., May 30, 11 a.m-12.

"Field Study 14," Mixed media on metal, 40x30"
