I am Anush G, Babayan, PhD, Associate Professor, an artist and philosopher. Through abstraction and light, I seek cultural dialogue and spiritual healing. My work bridges ancient wisdom and modern perception. “Magical Impressionism” is not a style — it is a path. It is painting as meditation, as breath. Each stroke is a ritual, each color a prayer. “Babayan’s works are visual meditations that connect the microcosm of the soul with the macrocosm of the universe” (Peter Frank).
I am painting exclusively on rice paper using Chinese brushes, without sketches or corrections — capturing the moment of “here and now.” My art honors ancestral wisdom and the rhythms of nature, offering viewers a space for reflection, healing, and inner transformation.
Philosophy and worldview
This is a visual expression of philosophical reflection on existence — a reverence for the ancient heritage of her people and the ever-renewing rhythms of nature. Here, thoughts and emotions are transformed into knowledge, where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and the small takes on monumental resonance.
Symbolism and Metaphor
“The vertical of the transcendent and the horizontal of earthly experience converge into a symbolic axis. Through panoramic vision and spatial veiling, the artist invites the viewer to enter her inner world — and through it, to find their own.”
Visual Language
My paintings do not follow conventional narratives. Flowers, mountains, birds, and figures are not depictions, but metaphors. ‘Everything is in me, and I am in everything,’ - that's my opinion. My works are my feeling knowledge on paper..
Technique and Materials
I am working exclusively on rice paper, using ink, mineral pigments, and Chinese brushes. Each stroke is a breath. Corrections are impossible — the work is created in one continuous flow, in a state of deep concentration.
