A quiet return after many years — if you wish to stay connected

Hello,

It has been many years since I last shared updates about my artistic work, and I’ve been meaning to write to you again. Over time, I stepped away from newsletters and public updates as life became shaped by instability and long periods of uncertainty. From time to time, I shared small glimpses through social media, but for the most part I remained quiet.

Even during this silence, I never stopped creating. I continued working on artistic projects and taking part in exhibitions and other opportunities, while focusing on rebuilding a sense of stability in everyday life. Much of my energy was devoted to my professional career and photography services in order to support my myself and my family after years shaped by war, difficult circumstances, constant movement from one place to another, and the challenges of maintaining health and continuity throughout the years.

Today, I feel ready to begin sharing my artistic journey more openly again. After arriving in Berlin and beginning to work from here as a base for my artistic endeavors, I find myself once again drawn to the slow and patient evolution of my work. This new chapter offers space to explore fresh ideas, experiment with different directions, and reconnect more deeply with the creative practice that has always remained at the core of my life.

Because it has been such a long time since my last message, I want to make sure that I am writing only to those who genuinely wish to stay connected.

Some chapters are not about returning, but about continuing differently.

Nairy Shahinian
