Elchin Veliyev
Fine Artist
Elchin Veliyev, a very young Azerbaijani artist, combines philosophy and aesthetic concepts of East and West in his creativity. He engages himself with traditional Azerbaijani carpet art in a picturesque way. For centuries spiritual, philosophical and aesthetic ideas of mankind are concentrated in all kind of carpets.
For Elchin is the carpet, with its difficult and complex "language" of symbols, an inexhaustible source of inspiration and in the center of all his compositions.
