Elen Arakelyan, a passionate painter, printmaker, and digital artist graduated from the State Academy of Fine Arts of Armenia, masterfully unites traditional techniques like linocut, etching, and book illustration with playful experiments in mixed media—blending sand, acrylics, and oils on canvas. Her abstract prints and illustrations embrace the tactile richness of monotype, etching, and carborundum, pushing boundaries to evoke spontaneity and depth. Through her intimate exploration of memory and fleeting moments, her artwork resonates with a quiet honesty, stirring nostalgia and introspection in those who experience it.
