I had the pleasure of participating in the Art Fair International in Monaco in September 2025, an event that brought together galleries and artists from around the world. My participation was a wonderful experience, well-received by an enthusiastic and international audience.

Through Gallery Gaudi, a Spanish gallery based in Madrid, I presented three artworks from my Forest Collection, continuing my exploration of the inner, psychological forest—a space full of color, energy, and stories reflecting the depths of our imagination and emotions.

I am grateful to Gallery Gaudi for their support throughout this experience. Participating in Monaco was a highlight of the year and an important step in sharing the Forest Collection with an international audience.

Forest Collection – In Fluorescence

I participated in the exhibition at Wadi Finan Gallery as part of a group show titled In Fluorescence, which brought together six artists and took place on June 21, 2025. This exhibition was a deeply meaningful experience for me, one that I hold close to my heart for its warm atmosphere, thoughtful organization, and the rich visual dialogue it created between the artworks, the artists, and the audience.

In this exhibition, I presented works from my Forest Collection. In my abstract approach, the forest does not represent the physical landscape we encounter while walking among trees. Rather, it reflects the psychological forest within us—a space we navigate internally, often without knowing what lies ahead.

This inner forest is a place we journey through without a clear map. It may hold adventures, stories that have been told, and others that remain untold. For some, it can be dark and heavy, while for others it unfolds as a forest filled with color, joy, and vitality. These contrasts are at the core of what I aim to express through my paintings.

In the Forest Collection, I worked primarily with a palette knife, applying small, repetitive strokes that build dense layers of texture and color. The bold and vivid palette is not merely an aesthetic choice, but a visual language that speaks of inner depth—of tension, joy, curiosity, and the quiet mystery we carry within ourselves.

This collection is among the closest to my heart, and one I continue to revisit and develop. It reflects my own transformations and offers me an ongoing space for exploration and introspection.

The exhibition was enriched by a beautiful and engaged audience whose presence added a vibrant energy to the space. Their interaction with the works played an essential role in shaping the overall experience and bringing the exhibition to life.

I extend my sincere thanks to Wadi Finan Gallery for their excellent coordination and thoughtful organization, and for creating a supportive and welcoming environment for both artists and artworks. Although the exhibition has come to an end, several works from the Forest Collection remain on view at Wadi Finan Gallery, continuing the dialogue beyond the exhibition itself.

All points on you 💗.

I began this year with a meaningful artistic participation outside my home country, in Armenia, through an exhibition organized by Arar Gallery. It was a quiet yet profound beginning—one that opened a new space for reflection and dialogue, and marked the start of a new circle within my artistic journey.

In this exhibition, I presented two new artworks from my Circles series. The first work measures 100 × 80 cm, and the second 80 × 80 cm. Both pieces were created using mixed media, combining acrylic paint and pastel colors. I worked with strong, vivid hues—as I always tend to do—colors that speak more about inner energy than external scenes.

The concept of circles in my work goes beyond a repeated visual form. Circles represent the layers of relationships we move through in life. The larger the circle, the wider the relationships and the greater the distance. As the circle becomes smaller, relationships grow fewer and closer, until we reach the most intimate and invisible space.

The smallest circle is the one we share with ourselves. It is an unseen circle that holds our inner thoughts, emotions, and questions—those we cannot always share with others. These are the thoughts we protect, hide, or keep for ourselves, not because they lack importance, but because they are deeply personal.

At times, these thoughts rise to the surface. They may appear as moments of honesty, slips of the tongue, or unguarded reactions. For this reason, some circles in my paintings seem to float. Yet they do not rise from the depths of the sea; they rise from the depths of our inner selves.

Presenting these works outside my country, in Armenia, added another layer to the idea of circles. Physical distance created a new circle—one shaped by a different audience, another culture, and multiple interpretations of the work. In this way, circles that emerged from within found themselves in dialogue with other circles, far away yet deeply human.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to ArAr Gallery for their thoughtful organization, warm professionalism, and careful attention to detail. This collaboration marked a meaningful beginning to the year and the opening of a new circle that I hold with gratitude as part of my ongoing artistic path.
