Hasmik Avetisyan

From time to time I wonder what would be like the end of the 21st century if we view it from the angle that it is the century of high technologies, a century in which the virtual world has taken its tall on spiritual values. However, after all, there remain values too irresistible to vanish and one of suchlike values is art. Nowadays we are given the opportunity to combine these two worlds, the world of art and the virtual one.

Today I'd like to share my ideas and thoughts about modern Armenian artist Hasmik Avetisyan. Hasmik calls her art a way of salvation, a means to escape from the external world. The real world is smaller than the world of imagination, so Hasmik enlarges her world and calls this unique ability a gift of nature.

On the one hand Hasmik reflects "A dream about flying" making you feel at ease, on the other hand, she may take "The sky on her shoulders," she may let you see how people look when they lead a "Conversation in masks" or reflect the damming effect of the "Dead city."

The topics are vraying and there is always a lot to say.

By all means, Hasmik never forgets about something very important... she has to become the breath of time to be noticed, to be appreciated. While painting Hasmik combines her feminine emotions and origin with restrained sense of intellect that does not lie heavy but rather goes above the concept of sex and becomes just human.

The artist does not have the right to be the slave of any kind of dependences so Hasmik sets herself free from conditionalities. Hasmik's art is transparent, so each of you is welcomed to find you own world in her works.
