Seta Injeyan is a contemporary Fine Artist whose art connects with the existence, motion, and sustenance of a vast range of natural and mythological phenomena. She is continuously informed, directed, and inspired by her dreams which have conferred upon her images of flying fish, her cast shadow, Rembrandt, doorways, open roads, organs of the human body, and even astrophysical phenomena. In this process of discovery Injeyan finds clear and unavoidable similarities of (to name a few) trees and the human lungs; roads and human arteries; Prometheus and the regenerating liver; the brain and electric discharges; the eye and Black Holes. On this level Art, Biology, Mythology, Electrostatics, and Astrophysics freely move amidst one another, exchanging momentum, energy and information at each encounter.
Injeyan was born to an Armenian family in Aleppo, Syria. She immigrated to Los Angeles, California at the age 24, and soon after earned her BFA at Art Center College of Design thus fulfilling her desire to obtain an art education, and acquire the best tools to start her journey as a painter.
Injeyan’s works have been selected by many curators for exhibition in national and international galleries. In the words of noted art critic Peter Frank, “As Injeyan employs it here, the combination of realism and expressionism is itself a surrealistic parallel to the Gnostic belief that ‘What is above is below, what is inner is outer.”
Injeyan lives and works in Glendale, California.
