DEAR WORLD...

Meet Sandro Tchikovani a human defined by his ability to express himself in a brave, bold way, showing his inner thoughts with no timidness or shame. Sandro loves the beauty of the entire experience trapped in the final completion of a work of art. No different than building a plastic model car, except Sandro builds a mental picture of his idea using 80% of his mental faculties. Deep in thought, he uses the last 20% to collect and manufacture all the parts to assemble his creations. The birth of a brainchild is the fostering and nurturing defined by gut, heart instincts, and brain-to-hand connection. And in one final swoop, a work is finished. It’s that climax that challenges the viewer to feel the power of his expression.

Sandro, a native San Franciscan, has been many things under the term "artist." His father, an immigrant from France, had a passion for art, which he passed on by taking him to where all the best ideas could be seen – museums. Also, an established architect working on projects for big-name architectural firms acted as an example of professionalism. In the 90s, Sandro used markers and spray paint as his delivery mechanism to magnify his soul through the exploration of letters and advertising his graffiti pseudonym, MISK1. It was this logical progression that got him noticed, inspiring his first professional work mentorship working at Foote Cone and Belding, supporting the Levi’s Design team under Brian Collins as a secret talent, giving insight for youth wear clothing marketing campaigns.

Sandro, for many years, has pendulum swung from one discipline to another. As a child, his parents pushed him to take ceramics, wood shop, photography, printmaking, figure drawing, painting, and lapidary classes. It was much of this bohemian approach to art and the legacy of the sixties in San Francisco that was so encouraging. Sandro only talks about his past not in a hope to embellish his personal journey but more of a way of defining the dots on the roadmap of his mission in life.

From fine art, graphic design, industrial design, and the latter are the glue that bonds him to materialize ideas out of thin air, turning them into tangible creations made from nothing into something, and can become anything, resulting in leaving you touched, moved, and inspired.

Welcome to the world of Sandro’s imagination as he shares his heart with you, titled Hearts4. A multi-disciplinary culmination of personal self-exploration and growth defined in one simple object. All the what, why’s, and how’s are irrelevant because if you truly understand Sandro, it’s this visual truth the Hearts4 project personifies.

LOVE,
Sandro Tchikovani

WHAT IS ART?

"Art is where a blank piece of anything becomes a mirror reflection of your soul. It’s where abstract thought becomes defined, from thin air to physical, bold reality. Art is the legacy of our ancestral savors, and the energy captured are those "ah-hah" moments of small mental euphorias that are silent, but you, the viewer, can feel the hidden energy in the final work that sits before you. At the heart of Sandro's artistic vision lies the unwavering belief that art can revolutionize and uplift humanity."
