“Cloth of Identity” series 06 Painting

Traveling in abstraction, postmodernist, figurative, expressive and neorealist genres, the artist-musician-composer, Hayk Grigoryan discovered his artistic abilities during the difficult time of pandemic and war. In this isolation, uncertainty and idleness, the artist redefined himself when paper and gouache suddenly appeared in his hand. The uncertainty and stillness of life turned into discovery and new world of art. 150 canvases later, his creations are like his music: bright improvisations of delicate emotional balance with rhythmic and stormy transitions and intelligent presentation. With the trumpet in one hand and the brush in the other, Hayk re-creates colorful melody by crystallizing reality. Presented in the permanent collection of the Yerevan Modern Art Museum .
