WHO IS LUKA?

Luka Zukhubaia is a multidisciplinary creative director, musician, and artist working at the intersection of music, visual culture, and human emotion.


“My work doesn’t exist without the audience.” Marina Abramović’s words have stayed with me throughout my artistic journey. I’ve always been drawn to artists who understand that art isn’t complete when it’s made. It comes alive when someone feels something in response to it.


At Ringling College of Art and Design, where I study the Business of Art and Design, I began bringing these disciplines together. From designing album covers and websites to directing exhibitions, developing music, producing campaigns, and leading creative teams, I’ve explored how ideas become experiences and how creative vision translates across mediums.
