“Silence”, acrylic painting by Mary Khachikyan

Acrylic painting on paper.

This painting depicts the sound of silence. Because the reasons for silence are so vast and varied, the artwork offers no single, definitive interpretation; instead, viewers are invited to discover their own personal meaning behind the quiet. For one, it may represent a feeling of being misunderstood; for another, ignorance or the unknown; and for a third, grand ideas that are simply too difficult to put into words. Ultimately, there are as many reasons for silence as there are observers. Seek your own inner silence here.
