Viktor Lyagushkin’s Bat Photography Featured at Tbilisi MoMA

National Geographic Georgia’s “Through the Years” exhibition opened at the Tbilisi Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) on May 5, bringing together works by Georgian and international photographers whose images have helped tell the story of Georgia over the years.

Among the featured authors are National Geographic Explorers Tako Robakidze, Natela Grigalashvili, and National Geographic photographer Viktor Lyagushkin.

The exhibition includes photographs from Lyagushkin’s long-term project dedicated to the bats of Georgia. The project was initiated and led by National Geographic Explorer Bogdana Vashchenko with support from the National Geographic Society, combining scientific research, visual storytelling, and conservation.

Created over several years in collaboration with Georgian scientists, the project explores the hidden world of Georgia’s bats while encouraging a fresh look at these often misunderstood animals.

We are delighted to see this work become part of an exhibition celebrating some of Georgia’s finest contemporary photographers.
