Vartist

France

Vartist, whose full name is Var Sahakyan, is an Armenian multidisciplinary artist based in Paris. He grew up in a family of artists, between his father's and his mother's studio, which led him to take art as a matter of course. It is this desire which animates him to belong to no style nor artistic current which makes his strength. What Vartist wants is to create, no matter what tool he uses. His artistic inspiration comes from questions about the human condition, the state of our environment and art itself.


Vartist has exhibited his art around the world and this is probably justified by his exemplary academic background. After studying music for five years, Vartist studied in the social sector between Armenia and the United States. He then completed a year of applied art at the European College of Liberal Art in Berlin. He completed his academic studies with an Msc in Strategic Leadership in Sustainable Development in Sweden and a final Msc in Marketing and Creativity at the ESCP between Paris and London.

Abstract Island 2

Abstract_Island_2_Vartist_3D.mp4

An abstract island consisting of colorful mountain scapes invites the lover of bright colors and mountains to take a trip into an imaginary land that was concocted in the mind of the artist. Vibrant shapes and forms combine with phytoplankton patterns to bring together the themes of nature and abstract art. The artist presents abstract art as a refuge - like a beautiful sand beach to go to and lounge upon. After an uphill journey, the work culminates in the depiction of a small gallery, where the viewer is able to gaze upon circular digital paintings of flowers.

More on digital art

Generative art
Generative art refers to a way of creating artworks using an autonomous system. In digital art, these are usually generated from code and algorithms created by the artist, often with certain predefined parameters or systems. Although these parameters guide the final outcome of the work, generative art is generally a surprising way to create artworks, as the results are often unexpected and the number of possible outcomes can be infinite.
AI
AI art is a branch of generative art that uses artificial intelligence. Unlike other generative artworks, AI artworks use specific complex algorithms and models derived from machine learning. The most common methods for creating AI art today are GANs (generative adversarial networks) or proprietary prompting platforms such as ChatGPT, Sora, Midjourney, or Dall-e.
3D
3D art uses 3D software such as Blender, Cinema4D, Houdini, or video game software such as Unity to create works of art. In 3D works, artists can either arrange assets (the 'objects' in a 3D artwork or world) that they have created themselves or purchased from other creators to create elaborate environments and scenes (an approach to 3D art called 'set dressing'), or specialize in sculpting, which involves creating their own objects and assets.
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry is a specialized 3D technique that allows 3D objects to be created from numerous photographs taken of an object or scene from multiple angles. These photos are then compiled to determine the specific positioning, shape, and dimensions of the object in space, and then converted into a 3D model. Initially developed for engineering and urban planning, photogrammetry has become a way for artists to produce extremely accurate 3D models from real-life images.
Collage
An extension of the traditional, plastic approach to collage, digital collage involves searching for and cutting out multiple images, extracting them from their original context, and recomposing them in a new arrangement to create a work of art. Artists can use their own photographs or find images on the internet.
Illustration
Digital illustrations are created using software such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Procreate. As with drawing on paper, the artist uses a stylus to sketch a figure or object, usually on a tablet, to construct a scene or artistic universe. Unlike traditional drawing methods, digital illustration is much more forgiving, as mistakes can be easily corrected and drawn elements and objects can be easily moved around within a scene.
Video
Video artworks primarily use a recording camera, but may sometimes include additional post-processing or editing to distort, modify or add additional elements to the image. Some artists use state-of-the-art recording equipment to create macro zoom-ins or time lapses, privileging fidelity to the subject matter. Others use additional softwares to significantly modify or warp the video, creating an alternative perspective on the world that surrounds us.
