Erekle’s paintings are primarily based on his drawings, often loose interpretations of his Black&White photographs. Erekle’s artworks incorporate vinylic emulsion, charcoal, and oil paints. “In my art, ideally, I want to initiate poetic dialogue between the present, or my current understanding of it, and the past. This is what is shaping me as a human being. I’m trying to research these non-tangible processes,” says the artist.
Apart from painting, Chinchilakashvili works in collage, installation, and other experimental mediums. His key influences come from various eclectic sources. He is an admirer of Paul Gauguin, Henri Matisse, Marlene Dumas, and Georgian wall paintings.
