Tatiana Ferahian

When life is tumultuous, art can serve as a channel of peace, a place to exorcise the demons that plague the mind and soul. Born in Lebanon during the civil war, Tatiana Ferahian escaped to Cyprus at the age of 14, where she turned to artistic expression, releasing the conflict and fear borne of her experiences, and discovering that beyond them lay hopes and ideals, aspirations for a brighter future.

Her work is delicate, intricate, and intense. It has been exhibited across Cyprus and as far afield as New York and Beijing. Her formal training took place in both the graphic design and fine art fields, and has resulted in pieces rendered with a technical artistry that delights not only the creative, but also the logical. From war-torn Lebanon, to the galleries of the globe, Tatiana's journey has been a long one, and her works show this forth. Each piece is a pilgrimage on canvas, an invitation to share a little of the artist's path.
