Product Overview
A remote, arcadian town seemingly lost in time, Argokhi forms the focal point of Grace McKenzie's meditative sophomore work. As her documentary reveals, this Georgian community is simultaneously out of step and in touch with the world: encumbered by its affinity for tradition, entrapped by its post-Soviet context, yet also emancipated from alienating consumerism by its direct engagement with the land, writes Gabrielle O'Brien.
