Eyes of Theia: See Magic

Hripsime Asatryan, Belgium

My artistic pursuit is an odyssey through the spiritual forms that weave the tapestry of contemporary civilization. Each stroke on the canvas is a whisper, a nuanced reflection of the intricate interplay between the tangible and the intangible. It is a narrative that unfolds in hues and shades, transcending the boundaries of conventional perception. As a curator of spiritual narratives, I delve into the unseen dimensions of our existence, capturing the essence of the intangible in tangible form. Through my art, I invite the viewer to embark on a journey of introspection, to navigate the labyrinth of consciousness. In the fusion of pigments and passion, my work seeks to evoke contemplation and spark a dialogue on the evolving spirit of our times. It is an ode to the subtle nuances of our shared humanity, a visual symphony that resonates with the echoes of our collective soul. My paintings are not merely compositions; they are portals, beckoning the beholder to transcend the superficial and delve into the profound. In this ever-evolving narrative of my artistic odyssey, I aspire to create a resonant harmony between the seen and the unseen, the material and the ethereal. Through the kaleidoscope of spiritual forms, my art invites you to traverse the corridors of your own consciousness and discover the profound beauty that resides in the heart of our existence. Art, in its purest form, exists for the sake of art itself. Master its language or choose to embark on a journey of self-expression that is uniquely yours—go art yourself. In the intricate dance between virtual and physical realms, the sabotage of the self serves to widen the chasm between these two dimensions. My artistic exploration delves into the enigma of the free mindless move—an unfettered exploration that questions the very components of freedom in creative processes. What constitutes the essence of free processes? Is it the liberation in movement, the freedom of thought, or the potent amalgamation of both? Integrating the freedom of movement and mindlessness in the creative process becomes a delicate balance—a broad understanding of the whole while maintaining clarity about the narrative unfolding in the interplay with the world. I have discovered that the integration of free movement finds its resonance through muscular intelligence. Training the body to move in synchrony with mindless interaction becomes a key, although the mind remains a pivotal orchestrator in this artistic symphony. The apex of my spiritual journey materialized in the ability to traverse spaces of the past while existing fully in the present. Having experienced the simultaneous presence in two temporal frames, I affirm that presence is the only subject worthy of our responsibility. It births the past and molds the future. Upon awakening to consciousness, I took an oath to cherish the feelings that accompany learning—the most precious of all emotions. Observing oneself during the acquisition of new knowledge, recognizing the intricate tapestry of emotions, and nurturing a growth mindset become paramount. In essence, our purpose on this earth is distilled to these experiences. I advocate for the liberation from the societal malaise that dehumanizes. Compare the essence of being within and beyond thought. Contemplate the primordial language of thought before the acquisition of spoken language. In this introspection lies the antidote to the dehumanizing ailments that afflict our social culture. In the end, my art is not just a visual manifestation; it is a manifesto for reclaiming the authenticity of human existence, transcending the confines of time, and embracing the profound responsibility of presence.
