Avetyan's creative cornerstone is the desriable quality of synthetically thinking, which is able to uncover new and unknown emotional and meaningful borders in the regular painting. The secret is not in the use of possible variants of artistic metal-working, with which the decorative art is so rich, but in the unprecedented generalizations of colour-plastic language in a painting's material foundation, conveying to Avetyan's works a surprisingly deep and inclusive sonority peculiar to symphonies.
