Joseph Rudyard Kipling wrote "The Ballad of East and West", of course, not about this story of love and tragic confrontation (as the impossibility of merging into a single whole in order to be not just next to, but together), but that's how I perceived the idea of the composition on the Batumi embankment. And the size of the figures does not matter here (which many commentators complain about): deliberate gigantism, it seems to me, is unnecessary. The depth of the author's idea and the original realization of the concept of the monument as a story about modern Romeo and Juliet in the language of high-tech sculpture are important. However, this is my personal perception. I leave it to each guest of Batumi to make up their own opinion
This is a sculpture, as Georgia itself with its hills and mountains and warm sea is beautiful. It makes you realize that there are such moments as Love in a person's life! And man's eternal pursuit of happiness! A very good composition!
An interesting place, the only thing surprised by the size, I thought it was many times more!

The extraordinary performance that takes place at the moment of Ali's approach to Nino and the connection into a Single whole has a fascinating effect on the Observers. The author has put a very deep meaning into this action. I highly recommend it!
The sculpture is worth a look. But be prepared that there is often a crowd of people around her. If you want to take a nice picture, you'll have to wait.
I didn't like it there at all 😔, the sea is disgusting, our south is much better except for the temperature, the food is very tasty and everything is expensive not like before 😔
