TOO CLOSE BUT STILL FAR AWAY ...

By SREELAKSHMI SAJI PILLAIPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Ali and Nino" is an immortal romantic tale that unfurls against the background of the South Caucasus during a time of huge political and social change. Set in Baku, Azerbaijan, and composed by Kurban Said in 1937, the novel follows the enthusiastic and frequently testing connection between Ali, a Muslim aristocrat, and Nino, a Christian Georgian princess. Their romantic tale catches the pith of the social junction between the East and West, as they explore the intricacies of their contrasting religions and customs in the midst of the unrest of the Russian Upheaval and The Second Great War.

In spite of the cultural tensions and clashes that take steps to keep them separated, Ali and Nino's security stays rugged, representing the chance of concordance between differentiating universes. The novel dives profound into subjects of character, steadfastness, and the battle to accommodate individual cravings with cultural assumptions. It likewise fills in as a rich social embroidery, offering experiences into the different and generally rich locale of the Caucasus.

In Batumi, Georgia, their romantic tale is rejuvenated through a dynamic figure by craftsman Tamara Kvesitadze. Raised in 2010, the model elements two transcending figures made of metal plates that move towards one another, at last converging into one preceding gradually isolating once more. This hypnotizing dance of the figures catches the timeless and dynamic nature of affection, as well as the continuous discourse between various societies. The "Ali and Nino" mold has since turned into a notable image of adoration, solidarity, and the getting through association among East and West
