A Confrontation in Black and White, Abstract Oil Painting by Vahan Yervandyan

In this oil painting on thick paper, the Armenian artist Vahan Yervandyan presents an abstract composition that ignites a dialogue between two opposite worlds. The interplay of form and formlessness, darkness and light, embodied by the dominant black-and-white palette, draws us into a mysterious realm where abstract forms seem to take on a human-like essence. With his brushstrokes, Yervandyan unleashes a war of shapes.
The dark background sets the stage for the visual narrative that unfolds before our eyes. Against this black backdrop, strokes of white emerge, etching out enigmatic forms that defy immediate interpretation. The artist's deliberate use of black and white is a powerful metaphor for the inherent dichotomy of existence – a constant interplay between opposing forces that shape our perception of the world.

As we immerse ourselves in the painting, a sense of tension fills the air. The abstract forms that emerge appear to dance, twist, and intertwine, or maybe fight as if caught in a perpetual battle. They take on an uncanny resemblance to human figures, their contours, and lines suggesting the presence of beings. The seemingly organic evolution of these abstract forms hints at a narrative that goes beyond the confines of the canvas. Once again Yervandyan presents an artwork that allows for multiple interpretations, inviting us to reflect on the eternal interplay of opposing forces within ourselves and the world around us.
