Garik Karapetyan was born in 1973 in Armenia. Lives and works in Armenia. ARTIST STATEMENT The relationship between art and science has, in recent times, started to become clearer. Speedy development and adaptation of new technologies allows art to take on many various new forms; art allows science to tackle the issues it faces in new and creative ways. Art has also been seen to benefit from applying formulae and scientific methods to the creation process, the science helping many to understand how art and the empirical world can relate to each other. Art creates an irrational space where the human being initially experiences an emotional reaction. If it is possible to somehow quantify these emotional reactions through understanding formulaically precise art, then we are able to better understand our emotional selves. The absolute is impossible to describe, but it is possible to create an image of it. Consequently, if the symbol can be interpreted then the image and the space of the artwork in question can only be felt. It is a closed system of inwardly complete infinite spheres, which is manifested in the artwork by revelation, once and forever. Each piece of my work has a unique name, which reflects the unexpected nature of its creation. The ''name-code'', consisting of numbers and letters, reconfirms the fact that each piece is a unique entity. Garik Karapetyan Artist
