About
David Ambarzumjan (b. 1999 in Wolgast, Germany) is a painter based in Berlin. Working primarily in oil, he combines detailed scenes with bold, heavily textured brushstrokes that reveal another time.
At the center of his series “Brushstrokes in Time” is the idea of different moments occupying the same space. Within each painting, past, present and imagined futures coexist in a single composition, moving between prehistoric environments, landscapes reshaped by human presence and futures in which nature reclaims the structures left behind.
The brushstroke functions both as part of the depicted landscape and as a physical interruption of it. Built up in thick layers of paint, its ridges and edges respond to changing light, shifting the work between painted illusion and sculptural presence.
As the series has developed, Ambarzumjan has pushed the scale and material weight of the brushstroke, using its movement and organic textures to explore cyclical relationships between creation, destruction and renewal.
Ambarzumjan’s paintings have been exhibited internationally and are held in private collections worldwide. Works from his Miniature Collection are released periodically through public online auctions.
