The New Dictionary of Old Ideas: Roads

Silk is often be associated with light, multicolored, natural, and precious qualities. The word may also remind us of the Silk Road. The virtual exhibition brought together fragments of history and selected items from the State Silk Museum in Tbilisi, Georgia. Through this, it explored topics such as places, travels, power, nature, science, industry, networks and connections, and human relations to them. This exhibition created a peculiar temporary museum, a cabinet of curiosities within the museum’s space. The stories told through selected objects, whether well-known or unknown, revealed the roads within the complex network of definitions.
