Lori Karamanlian is an internationally exhibited abstract artist known for her rich fluid art, where movement, emotion and intuition flow together effortlessly.
Her work has captured audiences in New York, Miami, Vienna and beyond and was featured twice during Art Basel Week at Red Dot Miami.
She is represented by The Gallery Steiner in Vienna and works as a self-taught artist with a background in music production, which deeply influences the intuitive and melodic way she approaches painting.
Lori Karamanlian specializes in alcohol inks, which are dye-based, highly saturated pigments suspended in isopropyl alcohol.
This fluid yet precise medium allows her to create detailed and vibrant compositions that embody both control and spontaneity.
Working primarily on large-scale canvases, she builds immersive visual worlds that explore themes of self-transformation, spirituality and the vastness of the universe.
Her work often revolves around duality - the interplay of light and shadow.
A moment where opposites collide.
Often before beginning a piece, she senses the presence of auras, where she perceives colors and energetic fields that surround herself.
This sensitivity in the unseen is mirrored in Lori‘s deep connection to nature. She draws her creative inspiration from the mountains she hikes and the waters she swims.
Water, in particular, resonates with her essence, mirroring the calm, movement, and adaptability she embodies in both life and art. These impressions become a starting point for the piece, guiding her process with a sense of unseen emotion and intuitive insight.
At the heart of Lori‘s artistic vision is the belief, that every person carries deeply personal gifts - something sacred that is ready to be shared with the world. For her, art is not just a means of expression. It is a catalyst for transformation. She sees each painting as a channel for something greater: a message, an inspiration, a moment of truth.
Through her art, Lori offers an invitation to pause and reflect, to feel deeply and to reconnect with the inner self. Each piece becomes a journey of healing, awakening and self-discovery, reminding us that art can illuminate what words cannot.
