Dawn on the Ocean, Anush Babayan, H: 34.5″

Description

This otherworldly painting depicts Anush’s romantic visions about the possibility of exploring and populating distant galaxies in the future. Strikingly created with natural mineral paint with silver powder on rice paper, Sunrise on the Ocean shows the formation of these celestial bodies in various stages of development out of an embryonic state.

In recent comments on this painting, Anush said: “I created Sunrise on the Ocean while living in California. The combined impressions of blue color, with light pink and crimson, remind me of the visual experience of dawn over the ocean. This is how the dawn is imprinted in my soul: communicating with beautiful nature, expanding my inner world, my microcosm, pointing to a larger world out there.”
