Welcome to DrBone.Art<\/a><\/h2>\n

Bone carving \u2014 an ancient and intricate art form \u2014 holds a quiet power. For centuries, artists in various cultures have transformed this material into sacred relics, ritual tools, and personal totems. Yet few have explored its modern artistic potential with the emotional depth and precision seen in the works of Dr. Tamaz Shotashvili.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Dr. Shotashvili was born in Tbilisi in 1957. His first encounters with visual expression were through drawings and small carvings in clay during his early school years. But it was at the medical institute where his curiosity shifted \u2014 and where a small kitchen bone, found during a family dinner, became the raw material for his first sculpture, carefully shaped using a surgical lancet.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Since then, he has refined this intimate craft into a symbolic language of his own. His miniature figures \u2014 dancers<\/a>, jesters<\/a>, ladies in hats<\/a>, saints<\/a>, and lovers<\/a> \u2014 speak through posture and silence. They are composed not just of anatomical precision but emotional insight, blending science and poetry in every gesture.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

His portfolio spans decades. And while each piece stands alone, together they form a deeply personal gallery<\/a> \u2014 a museum of gestures, gazes, and emotions delicately carved from humble material. This, together with bone carving, becomes something more. This is storytelling in miniature.<\/p>\n
