Burning Through by Diana Arutyunyan Explore Mondoir Studio Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 50 x 50 cm Year: 2026 Price: $3000.00 USD Status: available An exploration of transformation through intensity and movement. Layers of red, black, and gold flow across the canvas like emotional currents, reflecting the process of release, resilience, and inner rebirth. The work captures the moment of moving through fire rather than escaping it — where struggle becomes energy and transformation begins. Why collect this work?A broad, looping form presses against a field of diagonal strokes, turning the square format into a contest between circular return and forward thrust. Arutyunyan describes her intuitive practice as an exploration of transformation, tension, and release. Here, that intention is legible not as a fixed story, but through opposing directions of movement.In the photograph, black and gold bands bend from the upper left toward the centre, while shorter red, pink, and pale marks sweep diagonally across the right. The loop gathers visual weight; the scattered strokes appear to break from it.The catalogue identifies oil on canvas. Oil permits both sustained, curving passages and abrupt opaque accents, distinctions that structure this composition, though the photograph cannot confirm exact colour, surface texture, or paint depth.At 50 by 50 cm, the work concentrates a large bodily gesture within a compact field. It is useful for considering how abstraction can stage transformation through direction and interruption without resolving into a depicted event.
