Description
This etching captures a moment of profound introspection. The artist employs a daring approach to the self-portrait. Bold lines define the contours of the face. Deep shadows create a powerful contrast against the white paper. The gaze is steady and unapologetic. It reflects a spirit of fearlessness and intellectual rigor.
Rhythmic hatching builds volume in the cascading curls of hair. The glasses act as a focal point. They frame eyes that observe the world with a critical lens. This artwork aligns with a broader exploration of identity and gender. It rejects traditional softness in favor of raw honesty.
The technical precision of the print medium enhances the emotional weight. Every stroke feels intentional. The composition balances the density of the ink with open space. This creates a tension between presence and absence. The result is a timeless study of the human psyche. The piece stands as a testament to feminine strength and autonomy. It concludes with the subtle, textured lines of the clothing at the bottom of the frame.
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.
