I am an Armenian multidisciplinary artist born and raised in the capital city of Yerevan. I have defied societal norms and embraced my identity amidst racial and homophobic intolerance. From an early age, I have harnessed the power of art to confront social pressure and moral criticism and transformed my experiences into thought-provoking art projects showcasing my true self and advocating for LGBTQI+ rights, diversity, women's rights, and the stories of those mistreated. At the age of 15, I discovered my passion for fashion photography, using it as a medium to capture the essence of the story that touches me. This journey led me to drop my marketing course and pursue my dreams of creating impactful fashion editorials that inspire and influence those confined to conventional thinking. Now, I am based in Berlin, looking for new ways of creative path, transitioning into the world of software engineering and 3D art. I found endless possibilities and total freedom in coding, believing in the future of decentralization. By venturing into these fields, I aim to explore new avenues of creativity and further amplify his message of embracing individuality and diversity.
