Irakli Sabekia

Georgian designer and artistic researcher Irakli Sabekia works from Amsterdam at the intersection of design, art and philosophy, leading a multidisciplinary practice that explores the frictions arising between the human and the system. Installation is his primary form: experience becomes a tool for entering into dialogue with the viewer and for creating a meaningful encounter.

His work has been shown at Ars Electronica, the Serpentine Sackler Gallery, the Van Abbemuseum, Bozar and Dutch Design Week, and in 2022 he was a finalist in the Falling Walls Art and Science category. A Melkweg Award winner from Design Academy Eindhoven, he tutors design research in its MA Geo-design and has taught at the Sandberg Institute and Basel Academy of Art and Design.
