We at Kilometre Paris would like to introduce you to our muse: Mamuka Tsetskhladze. Though an avid traveller, with a firm belief that everywhere in the world is beautiful and worthy of visiting, Mamuka has not dedicated himself to travel; instead, he has chosen to travel the world through his paintings. Mamuka's last project was the views of the Caucases from Saguramo village, and he's still in search of his next adventure. Mamuka enjoys reading, watching movies, listening to music, and riding his bike; a bike which, from the sounds of it, is as much a part of his identity as his paintbrush. Though content with staying in Tbilissi, Mamuka has never slowed down and insists on riding his bike on the highway. His creativity, artistry, and general “laissez faire” attitude are the main reasons why he simply had to be a part of Caravan.

We at Kilometre Paris would like to introduce you to our muse: Tatuka Japaridze. Tatuka is an ever- burning creative soul, one who strives to, each and every day, follow her passions and avail herself of the only true freedom available to all humans: self-expression. Tatuka is committed to the idea that, while it is important to keep local traditions alive, one should not shut themselves off from the world, and that travel truly broadens the mind and further enhances one's bond to one's own culture. Tatuka's last project was a small private garden on the outskirts of Tbilissi, a garden which she designed to reflect a style which is entirely her own. Tatuka's next project will be to work on a grand garden with a breathtaking view. A project which, will larger in scale, will undoubtedly convey the same passion and sense of comfort which her last project achieved. Thriving off of discovering the stories and experiences of others, Tatuka has committed herself to preserving and celebrating Georgian culture, especially through art and design. Her dedication, coupled with her artistic eye and earnest love for all things Georgian, are what made her a perfect choice to be a part of our Caravan project.

We at Kilometre Paris would like to present our muse, Nino Chubinishvili. Nino is a woman, an artist, and a human being, but most importantly, she describes herself as a "citizen of the universe”. Every role she takes on creates space for another, and with each shift, she evolves. Though the world may be in strange times, Nino remains anchored in her own personal vision, navigating it with the mindset that even the struggles and failures are part of the dream she’s living. Life is about following her own path — a path that's uniquely hers. Her last project was a deeply personal one: a 63-page handcrafted book begun at the end of the Soviet Union. It was a letter to her daughter, and when it was finally printed, her daughter was 32 years old. Looking ahead, Nino is now focused on bringing her dream of a creative space to life — Blue Chubika, a luxury shop that will blend the aesthetic of a gallery with the precision of a designer's touch. It’s a project that reflects her deep passion for interior design and craftsmanship. Making furniture and designing spaces — these are the things that ground her. She finds solace in the tactile, physical side of design, where materiality and intention converge. But it’s not just her art or design that fuels her. Nino is passionately tied to her roots, to the very essence of what it means to be Georgian. For her, being Georgian is a journey through the turbulence of the last 30 years — a mix of patience and constructive rebellion, of holding awareness without losing oneself to radical extremes. To Nino, Rome, Paris, and Jerusalem each have their own magic, but ultimately, Nino finds her truest happiness wherever she can be with her loved ones and her creations. Love and creation are her grounding forces, the frequencies where she feels most at home, wherever she may be.

We at Kilometre Paris would like to present our muse: Sofio Gongil. Sofio is a perennial dreamer, one who's love of nature and of that which lives in nature can only be matched by her love for tales with happy endings. Sofio's last collection was "Goddesses": a collection of goddesses symbolizing hope, hope for a world wherein their presence might guide the world to becoming a better, more peaceful place. Sofio derives great joy in redecorating her house and garden, as well as cooking. Through her jewellery, which is a revitalization of her country's ancient (12th century) Byzantine clouisonne enamel technique, Sofio seeks to bring ancient beauty into the modern world. An ever-proud Georgian, Sofio loves her home country; however, she's also come to love Zurich, the hometown of her grandaughter, as well as the favourite place of every hopelessly eternal artist: Paris. Sofio's hope for the future of the world, and for the future of humanity are what makes her just the kind of person we want to promote through Caravan.
