Description of the Artwork “Terra Cat”
Terra Cat is part of the series of sculptures "Cats. Game". In order not to feel sad in isolation during the Pandemic, I decided to entertain myself: play cats. Cats know how to be independent in any situation. Their plasticity has long attracted me. In my work there was already a series of souvenirs - porcelain sculptures dedicated to cats. I don’t have my own cats, but there is plenty of this goodness on the Internet. I started making sketches. I sculpt my sculptures from layers of clay. In painting I use techniques that were used in decorating toys and dishes in folk traditions. I take them as a basis and interpret them in a modern way. I use colored clays, ornaments and glazes. For a long time I have been creating wall layers and decorative panels that decorate interiors. From this the idea was born to make sculptures that can be located on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. I hang my cats wherever I want, I decided!

She is interested in ancient and archaic images and sculpture, stone prints and cave paintings. The sculptor is inspired by the forms and ornaments of the arts of different peoples of the world, because it has been honed over the centuries to the harmony and laconicism of forms transformed into a symbol. In her work, Elena Gambaryan seeks the relationship between nature and man and the answer to the question of how a person can establish peace and harmony in himself and be filled with this state from nature. Her creativity is only on the bright side of life. The artist is interested in achieving a feeling of fullness and inner content of the form. She conducts this search in works on various topics.
