Hasmik Chakhmakhchyan

Hasmik Chakhmakhchyan is a creative producer, director, and visual artist whose work centers on the creation of original interdisciplinary forms across music film, choreography, performance art, and contemporary opera. Her artistic practice is rooted in visual thinking and structural composition, where image, movement, and space are conceived as integral parts of the musical experience. For many years, Chakhmakhchyan has worked in a sustained creative dialogue with composer Araksya Musheghyan. Together, they operate as a unified artistic duo, developing projects that emerge from a shared vision rather than conventional role distribution. Their collaboration has resulted in a body of work distinguished by its conceptual coherence, formal rigor, and refusal to follow existing formats. A defining example of this approach is the creation of the first Armenian crossover opera AMEN. Chakhmakhchyan’s role extends beyond traditional production. She functions as an author of form — shaping visual dramaturgy, spatial logic, and the overall artistic architecture of each project. Her work emphasizes restraint, precision, and inner tension, allowing space, silence, and physical presence to carry meaning. Recent projects include choreographic films based on original musical compositions, performance art videos, and contemporary vocal works developed with rare and unconventional voices. Across all formats, Chakhmakhchyan maintains a consistent visual language defined by clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of direction. Her practice positions production as an artistic act, enabling the creation of distinctive, uncompromising works that exist outside genre boundaries and conventional production models.
