About the Item

The philosophical painting “Where are we, who are we?” shows a young woman with two mysterious, bird-like figures in soft pastel tones. The scene carries quiet uncertainty, inviting reflection on identity and belonging. Space and figures blend gently, leaving meaning open, felt rather than explained. The atmosphere is fragile and introspective, where presence and absence coexist, and questions of self and place appear, hovering between clarity and ambiguity in a subtle, lyrical way. Anna Annuk Soghomonyan is a distinguished artist, born in 1980 in Yerevan, Armenia. She holds a Master’s degree in Fine Arts from Yerevan State Academy of Fine Arts (2012), and a Master’s degree in Psychology from Yerevan State University of Languages and Social Sciences (2002). Having participated in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad, Annuk has garnered many awards, recognitions, and positive critiques from both esteemed critics and enthralled audiences. Annuk’s paintings are in many private collections around the world and in several public collections. Anna Soghomonyan's art results from an exploration of deep psychological and cultural layers. Her works serve as poetic dialogues between the inner and outer worlds of the human experience, as well as between personal memory and collective heritage. Her art develops along two main thems the psychological examination of identity and the reinterpretation of cultural heritage. Her style is characterized by combinations of emotionally charged color fields. Her palette reflects the vibrant and diverse colors of Armenia. She often works in thematic series, exploring a specific idea or emotional state in each. Her works feature elements of modern expressionism, surrealism, and primitivism, intertwined with the traditions of Armenian fauvism, creating a unique and recognizable artistic language. Soghomonyan works in series, dedicating approximately two to three years to each. She uses oil or acrylic paints, depending on the artistic objective. Her creative process, as she describes it, is deeply connected to the subconscious; she initially creates chaotic marks and textures in various colors, subsequently discerning the future painting within them, thus bypassing conscious intent. This method, reminiscent of surrealist automatism and abstract expressionism techniques, allow characters and narratives to emerge not from conscious decision-making, but from inner, intuitive impulses.

A Woman of My Dream I - Original Figurative Portrait Painting on Canvas

A Woman of My Dream I - Original Figurative Portrait Painting on Canvas

By Mohamad Khayata

Located in Los Angeles, CA

Mohamad Khayata’s original figurative artworks are the result of five years of displacement and deal with themes of migration, memory, and identity. Mohamad’s paintings convey an array of emotions, ranging from bliss and comfort to tension and uncertainty. Many of his paintings portray a sense of transience, which is all the more palpable when considering that Khayata's intimate work is a tribute to displaced people and to their daily life stories that, far from familiar surroundings, are filled with effort and hope. Khayata created this original painting with acrylic on canvas. It is 31 inches tall by 23 inches wide. It is signed by the artist on the back of the canvas. This painting is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included with this original work. Born in Damascus, Syria, artist Mohamad Khayata was forced to flee his home country due to ongoing political conflict. Khayata has been living in Beirut, Lebanon since 2012. His work is a resounding call for transformation and unity within his home country. His photography project "Stitching my Syria back" was chosen to be part of Journeys Festival International 2016 as a landmark for the “Look up” project in Leicester, where his photographs were installed on ten buildings. In the last five years, Khayata also participated in ten collective exhibitions across Europe and the Middle East. Holding his BA in Fine Arts obtained at Damascus University, Khayata is a bastion of Syrian legacy, memory, home, and happiness.
