This beautiful painting by Tegi Barsegian will remind you of the George Braque days. Oil on Canvas,size 24 x 20 inches.Tegi was born in Yerevan, Armenia. She graduated with honors at the Terlemezian School of Arts in 1983 and Yerevan Academy of Arts in 1988. However, as an artist she matured in Kharkiv, Ukraine. She has been living in the United States since 2006.As a child, Tegi aspired to become a ballet dancer. Although her childhood dream of being a ballerina would never come to a fruition, her quest for artistic expression led her to discover another way to express her creativity: painting. She endlessly studied and experimented with various painting techniques and styles until she developed a language that is completely her own. While she mentions medieval art, Renaissance masters and art of the contemporary world amongst her biggest influences, post-impressionism and surrealism also resonate with her work.Forever fascinated with the purity and simplistic beauty of basic shapes and forms, Tegi utilizes a geometric framework to depict her synthesized scenes of everyday life, dreams and fantasies. The bulbous cherb-like figures of her works, call to mind the focus of her earliest creations, the perfect features of a flower. At times resembling a child’s toy, lost on a never ending tabletop, her fairytale like scenes are not necessary as innocent as they might seem. Tegi’s other worldly paintings tell a unique story to every person privileged enough to be in their presence.
