NINA (Nina
Khemchyan)
Born in 1964 in
Yerevan (Armenia), NINA has been living and working in Paris since
1993.
After having completed a course of study in Visual and Dramatic Arts
at the National Institute of Fine Arts in Yerevan, the artist
continued her studies at the National School of Art and Design in
Paris.
Like a demiurge, NINA sculpts perceptions of the earth and the
beings that inhabit it.
Working the line and oxides, she engraves bodies on to a spherical
support, The planets, spheres or balls thus created are besieged by
bodies contrasting on the backgrounds in positive or negative,
impressive occupation of space in a contemporary ballet scenography,
a trifle erotic, a trifle humorous…
Since 1990, NINA has exposed her work in salons and galleries in
Yerevan, then in Paris, Luxembourg, Los Angeles, Milan, Brussels.
The Armenian Museum of Contemporary Art has just purchased several
of her works.
