ARTIST PROFILE
Vakim Pirdon is a contemporary painter and digital artist whose work bridges the worlds of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology.
As a conventional painter, he has presented his work in various international exhibitions and independent art spaces, where his distinctive visual language and philosophical depth have drawn the attention of critics and collectors alike. His paintings reflect a profound engagement with form, texture, and light — a dialogue between the tangible and the imagined.
In his digital practice, Pirdon explores the expressive potential of pixels as brushstrokes, creating compositions that merge the rigor of classical technique with the freedom of the digital medium. Each image is constructed manually, through meticulous work on a graphic tablet, without the intervention of Artificial Intelligence or automated systems. This conscious rejection of generative tools underscores his commitment to human intention, sensitivity, and authorship in art.
Vakim Pirdon’s digital works can be materialized on diverse supports — from canvas and wood to metal or methacrylate — or transformed into audiovisual experiences that expand their emotional resonance.
His visual language draws from collage, abstraction, and poetic symbolism, often set against deep monochromatic backgrounds that evoke the inner landscapes of thought and emotion. Each piece is frequently accompanied by a phrase or poetic fragment that enhances its conceptual depth and connects the visual with the spiritual.
Through his art, Vakim Pirdon explores the intersection of perception and philosophy, body and metaphor, transforming technology into a space of contemplation and poetic revelation.
