WHO IS BEHIND GEORGIAN INFUSION?
Large cultural projects are often imagined as institutions. Georgian Infusion is not one of them. It is built by a small, hands-on team — where every person is directly involved in the work itself: in museum storage examination, in research, in coordination, in building the project step by step.
It began with Natela Potskhveria — founder and curator of Georgian Infusion. Coming from fashion writing and storytelling, she brings together fashion, media, and museum practice into a single vision — shaping both the research direction and the future exhibition.
Georgian Infusion is also an entirely women-led initiative.
Different backgrounds, different roles — but a shared focus: to build a working system for Georgian costumes and bring these garments back to life.
