Armenians who are living in Tbilisi !!

Armenians who are living in Tbilisi !! They found their way in art and culture

This is a studio situated in Aragveli where a miniature painter Merujan Shahumyan is working. "Good works starts from small spaces:" said Shahumyan.

Those caps have their unique place in his studio...

It's not negligence, its an art...

Merujan Shahumyan was studying divinity and then became interested in miniature painting. "Divinity is the only rescue for a person to believe and accept God. It's not easy to paint with always following divinity, you should wholly concentrate your mind and soul into your works."

"Now people are mostly interested in abstract picture style because it always leads you to an uncertainty. It's not easy to watch to the divinity art works, because they have beginning and ending and you should try your best to understand the core element of the painting:" Shahumyan stated.

The Armenian-Azerbaijani war was another challenge that he had faced: "This was the time when I stopped painting" said Shahumyan.

"After the war, 4 months later I took the pencil and painted a work which was cure for me. I was finally recovered and the negative energy went away from me:" said Shahumyan.

Painting is done in 2020 November representing two nations continuous dispute.

At the end the painter said that "Either you bring an energy to your paintings or they pass you this energy. It depends on how we perceive the reality and how we react to the things that surrounds us."

Milgran Dilbarian is an architect who is mostly working on churches and is doing architectural works which are demanded by the society.

Dilbarian said: "When I know my works are really important for the society I do it. No one pays attention to the window repaired in the church, but I feel that it's a protected object for people. All should do their mission in this life!."

Those are window elements for Tsalka town church. "Investors call me, the order and I should finish the work in an exact date they said so. Time to time people cope with the difficulties they face and look to the positive sides of their work..." said Milgran Dilbarian.

His tools are basic part of the architecture work. Tools should be clean and accurate. Milgran used to work with 15 people but then he decided that many people put different approach to their work, but when he is alone he designs himself and easily says that he is the author of the work.

This is Havlabar's church door which is created by Milgran Dilbarian.

This is the arthouse of Marina Khachaturova, an artist living in Havlabar District.

Marina's house is full of her paintings which she said is the way to welcome people in a warm environment.

She says you put sth from yourself in any picture you are painting.

Marina used to paint in her kitchen: "No one disturb me to paint, I watch at sth and immediately take my tools to start my work. This is so pleasant. I feel that my paintings love me in a way I love them:" stated Khachaturova.
