I am a self-taught artist who has been passionately drawing and painting since childhood. My dedication to the craft has earned me two awards before the age of 16, and I showcased my work in my first exhibition at 18. Now 25, I continue to explore various mediums, including traditional techniques like watercolor and aquarelle, as well as digital illustration.

My expertise extends to graphic design, where I create visually compelling flyers, logos, identities, and detailed booklets and reports for a diverse clientele.​ I approach each project with a deep commitment to research and archiving, ensuring that every piece I create is grounded in a rich understanding of the subject matter.

Whether it's a detailed illustration or a comprehensive design project, I strive to blend creativity with precision, delivering work that resonates on both an artistic and conceptual level.

 Élucubration de la porte condamné / painting - Personal project

2022 - 2025

This is my first self-portrait, painted over two years — because I needed time to grow into it, i’ve painted the canvas twice before starting my face.

Creating a language of symbolic visual somewhere between , metaphor and emotional memory.

I do believe we are our memories consciously or not. They are the data and symbols in which we build our own narrative and values. And throughout time it may change or grow to other symbols or even perhaps rituals.

The red window frame is drawn from a memory, as are most of the objects surrounding it - act like remnants of lived
experience, floating between dream and clarity.

The painting is divided tonally: the left side carries a heavier energy and warnings. The right side leans toward renewal, and presence. In the middle, I appear — or rather, a version of me — suspended in the threshold between those two forces, inside and out.

This painting is both a door and a mirror. It tries to capture not just a likeness, but a state of being — suspended in between stories, emotions, and the pressure of time. It is not a conclusion, but a beginning.

Illustrating the Spirit of Celebration: Masks for parties promotions.


Since last year, I’ve been collaborating on a creative project that merges art and festivities.  Developing unique illustrations and animations of masks designed to elevate the promotion of events and collaborate tightly with its organizers on the artistic direction. This project is a case study in illustration, exploring how visual storytelling and design can bring themes to life.

 

From concept sketches to animated visuals, each mask reflects the mood and narrative of its respective theme, adding a layer of magic to every celebration.

Stay tuned as this journey continues to grow, blending artistry and festivity in new and exciting ways!

Logo, ident, UX/UI and more - imedia.ch SARL

2022 - 2024

As a designer at imedia.srl, I played a key role in creating visual identities for diverse clients. I designed logos, developed cohesive company identities, and created websites with each brand's message in mind. I also specialized in print design, crafting flyers and other materials that resonated with target audiences. A significant part of my process involved working closely with clients, thorough research and development to ensure that each project aligned with their vision.

 

By collaborating closely, working with them in tandem and showcasing final products that met client expectations but helped them stand out in their respective markets.

Here are some examples of the work:

Active archive - Digital painting series

2021 - 2023

This digital painting series, Active Archive, explores the enduring resonance of ancient expressions and proverbs through imagery that bridges past and present with my personal symbolics.

  1. Lourd est le prix de celui qui veut grandir (French): “Heavy is the price of those who wish to grow” becomes a meditation on transformation and struggle. The artwork delves into the weight of ambition, portraying growth as burden that can turning in onto oneself and the inevitable lost of one's pieces to leave space for new one.

  2. The eagle was killed by an arrow made from its own feathers (Armenian proverb): This striking image of self-destruction and vulnerability ties deeply to identity. Drawing from my Armenian heritage, this painting intertwines pride and poignancy, reflecting on how strength can also become a source of fragility. 

  3. Excusso imbre nitebunt (Latin): This phrase, loosely translating to “The rain will clear them up,” For the tears that restore serenity to - The spirit, is to the conscience of sinners. Captures themes of resilience and renewal. The painting reflects this idea through dynamic contrasts of stormy turbulence and radiant clarity.

 

Together, these three pieces form a dialogue between cultural wisdom and artistic interpretation, inviting viewers to reflect on the timeless truths embedded in these expressions.

Carnet de bord - Sketchbook series

2016 - now

Since 2016, I’ve dedicated myself to completing a sketchbook each year, a project I call Carnet de Bord. What essentially began as a simple way to practice my drawing skills has evolved into something much more reflective. Inspired by the idea of a mariner’s logbook, I use these sketchbooks to capture memories, thoughts, and experiences creatively.​​

From drawing and painting to collage and poetry, each page serves as a material record of my journey as an artist. My Carnet de Bord is always with me, a personal canvas that reflects my growth and keeps alive the moments that have and will shape me.

Animals of emotions - Paintings series

2016 - 2018

Sometimes we must see the emotions of others to realize our own. More abstract, colors and emotions coincide with an emotion given by human and animal movement. In each of these painting I have attributed a color palette to an emotion and an animal. Intersected by geometric shapes by using inverted colorings. In this manner as if we had a less different. As if we could feel by means of an emotion, a world that is unique to each of us.

This project was displayed during my exhibition of the 23-25th of may 2018, titled "Fearless after all".

Though out the lens - Installations

2017 - 2018

If you are familiar with public transport the feeling of being watched and analyzed isn’t foreign to you, am I right? In slang we called it «hostile design» when the benches in the streets aren’t comfortable or replaced by leaning bars that you can only lean and not sit on. This design nourishes our cities, that are becoming more and more similar and more and more connected, send us a message, cognitively, with cameras that are easy to spot. Yes, those cameras are placed in the middle of the metro so as to catch your eye. In this way, you will behave. The eye, represented on a transparent pane, hollow cameras from an eye, which is visible in most trains to signal that you are being watched and all this data will be saved for the next 72 hours. But what a good citizen forgets is that they can at any moment ask for any image that concerns them. This becomes more and more difficult with diverse technologies that surround us. To start with our use of transports, but also simply the data received by the daily use of Google, Facebook, our phones, operators and more. We accept to give this information even if it represents an economic goldmine.... It’s for this reason that all the cameras are united by many cables who lead to only one, to symbolize that this data

is often supplied to only one recipient. In his document, Cullen Hoback (Terms and conditions may apply) shows us we all give a lot of data and this is in a completely legal depending on the country we find ourselves in. However, a very well-known figure who signed the American Declaration of independence once said, “Those who would give up essential Liberty​ nor Safety”. The point of this installation is not to give a pessimistic view of the technology that surrounds us, but rather to realize the importance and the power we give it, even if this technology seems ordinary.

This project was displayed during my exhibition of the 23-25th of may 2018, titled "Fearless after all". Where I explore questions about what it means to live a human life, and how one's context and perception of their reactions to reality are crucial to experiencing a deeply human existence, even through burdens.

Brilliant absent - Neon installations

2018

I believe feeling “empty” or absent is a feeling common to us all. And which can transpire and take more or less time to dissipate.

 

It’s this feeling which pushed me to make this artwork. The feeling of being as empty and inert as a line that would outline a dead person in the street.

 

Here, reinforced by a red neon light, the color can be associated to blood but also to passion. A color as passionate as sanguine. The goal is not only to put forward the feeling of being absent but also to enlighten something that unites us all one way or another: death. An accidental death, a voluntary one or simply an unknown one.

 

The neon light, completely opposite to the white line on the cement, is a contradiction with what is

usually a triviality which here is highlighted. The neon light is placed in front of a car, a transportation device which has revolutionized our way of life and consumption in the past decades. A way of transport which is shared between all of us but with different perceptions from each of us.

 

This object is for me a place full of good and bad memories, all while knowing that this object was never produced with this in mind but rather for its sole use.

 

In industrial cities another type of transportation that is absolutely certain: the train. However, both of these types of transport put forward another type of death that affects us more and more: suicide, or as the train stations state, “accidents to individuals”.

 

This artwork puts forward the newest evil of our century: depression and misery of living (or just misery). Suicide is as dashed off as the white line traced around the dead on any street. As if the fact of being so many distanced us from one another.

This project was displayed during my exhibition of the 23-25th of may 2018, titled "Fearless after all". Where I explore questions about what it means to live a human life, and how one's context and perception of their reactions to reality are crucial to experiencing a deeply human existence, even through burdens.
