STATEMENT
Mira Satryan Artist Statement
My painting is a message evolving around emotions, eternal to some degree, primary, one could say… It is the fascination, the ability to perceive and experience beauty, a union of most intimate experiences and emotions, the fascination with nature as well as with a relatively relationship with another human being.
I express in my painting the concerns and risks that result from a fleeting structure of circumstances defining our everyday lives.
Painting is the realm of communicating expression and emotionality that are a common theme of sorts in my paintings – the awareness of impermanence.
Sometimes my painting has a dramatic form, emphasized with a contrast color of varying intensity of the hue. The structure of our existence is very fleeting and frail; it takes an effort to cultivate it… Our experiences
are ephemeral and transitory… and everything passes irrevocably.
