"Brushstrokes in Time" is a series of paintings by Munich based artist David Ambarzumjan, in which two wildly different landscapes are brought together on the same canvas with one expressive brushstroke. In the first painting, for example, we can see the quaint streets of Montmartre in Paris sliced through by a blue brushstroke encapsulating a number of great white sharks swimming over the pedestrian street.
According to the artist, the inspiration for these bizarrely whimsical scenes came as the pandemic started taking a grip on the world. “I started working on these pieces right when the pandemic started to surge so I felt inclined to put us, the viewer, in a seemingly passive role and instead focus on the animal world around us, even if many of the works remain centered around our footprint on this planet,” Ambarzumjan said in a statement to My Modern Met.
