Yervadyan delivers a true and intimate experience. When looking at Yervadyan's paintings, the viewer participates in a unique phenomenon where a detail starts to splash and transform the whole existing reality. Abstraction solicits our attention to the most precise materiality and is the opposite of any figuration at the same time. The intense presence of yellow almost in the centre plays like a ray of light that the observer allows in their veins and souls.

The abstract painting, freed from the burden of representation, brings the viewer paradoxically closer to the sacred than certain religious figurations. This artwork only acts on our emotions and our fondness for mysticism, confronting human beings with the immensity of the world. This work of art creates a feeling of reverence, even fervour, towards the mystery of life.

Vahan Yervadyan is a renowned artist hailing from Armenia and has been living and teaching art in the United States for the past ten years. See less
