If art were a kitchen, Yana Arutyunova would be preparing a surreal salad—her canvases blend reality with fantasy. A self-taught artist who ignores conventions, she creates worlds where innocence flirts with abstraction.
About her method: «I experiment. Acrylic is like breath to me: sometimes it stills in naive silhouettes, sometimes it bursts into abstract strokes. Shadows here tell whole stories: from azure laughter to pomegranate sadness. Light here is music: from pearly dawn to amber sunset. The canvas is a diary where each page is born in dialogue with the paint.»
About her style and mission: «My goal is to guide the viewer to see the unusual in the ordinary. For me, art is a bridge between reality and fantasy, an invitation to play with the perception of the world. My paints are a little bridge between “what is” and “what could be.”»
P.S. «The studio is filled with creative disorder: the smell of fresh paint mingles with the aroma of coffee, and the floor bears traces of hesitant brushstrokes. Here, ideas, like quiet melodies, wait to be played on the canvas. I don’t seek perfection—I seek a spark. If my paintings make someone say, “I feel that way too!” it means the paints didn’t lie.»
