Description
This compelling mixed media painting captures a moment of raw vulnerability and power. The figure dominates the frame with a commanding presence. A low angle creates an immediate tension between the subject and the viewer. Thick impasto strokes build a tactile surface. The skin glows with warm ochre and pink tones. These hues contrast sharply against the cool, muted greens of the background.
The artist employs a bold, experimental approach to the human form. Every brushstroke emphasizes the physicality of the body. The gaze is steady and defiant behind dark frames. This intimacy challenges traditional perceptions of gender and strength. There is a fearless quality to the composition. The hand rests delicately yet firmly across the chest. This gesture suggests both protection and openness. The textures blend seamlessly to create a sense of depth and movement. The artwork explores the intersection of identity and visibility. It transforms a simple portrait into a statement on empowerment. The composition concludes with the heavy, sculptural application of paint across the torso.
Presentation
Dzovig Arnelian (b. 1996) is a Beirut-based Lebanese-Armenian artist whose works address themes related to gender roles, feminism, and the criticism of patriarchy. Her practice is mainly focused on painting and exploring her body as her paint brush, etching, engraving, and photography. Her depiction of deeply personal subjects is bold yet sensitive, offering a view of her world in an intimate, subtle and vulnerable manner.
Arnelian's contemporary expressionist style is typified by her use of bold and vibrant colors and she also experiments with versatile mediums, using material from her everyday life that evoke feelings of sensuality, love, fertility, and intimacy. Arnelian's bold yet delicate expression challenges prevalent stereotypes about femininity, sexuality and feelings we trap and express in our bodies.
Arnelian obtained her bachelor's degree in plastic arts in 2019 and later completed her master's degree in fine arts in 2021 from the Lebanese University. She held her first solo exhibition "24 Universes" in 2020 at Artlab Gallery in Beirut and has since participated in several solo and group exhibitions in Egypt, Spain, the United States and Japan. Her works have also been acquired by many private collectors from across the world.
Dzovig Arnelian is also the founder of Arneli Art Gallery.
