New Photo Exhibit by French-Armenian Photographer Explores the Body as
an Abstract Form
11:11 - 13.03.10
A series of black-and-white photographs called `Revealed Shades' by
French-Armenian photographer Tamar Sarkissian will be on display at
the Yerevan Chamber Theatre from March 30 to April 11.
The Facebook event page created by the Women's Resource Center of
Armenian (WRCA) provides more information about the artist and her
work:
`Born in France, Tamar Sarkissian specializes in black and white
analog photography. Since 2007, she has been collaborating with WRCA
on issues such as body image and self-esteem among young women.
`She has combined her two passions, photography and abstract painting,
to complete this project, which she began 10 years ago.
`After experimenting with lighting, angles, film stock and paper, she
was finally able to transform the body into a completely subjective
abstract form. Playing with light and shadow, these images have not
been subjected to any post-editing or touch-ups.
`The viewers are given freedom of interpretation to discover and
imagine through these works.
`Beauty is subjective - it belongs to everyone.'
The exhibit opens with a reception on March 30 at 6 pm.
