Mariam Muradian

I  was born an Artist. My Father was a cellist, artist, mathmetician, and composer. My Mother was a concert pianist who wanted to be a doctor (who later attended the University again in her 50’s and became an HIV/AIDS researcher.) My parents always encouraged and nurtured my gift. I am a formally trained artist, alumni of The School of The Art Institute of Chicago and La Universidad Literaria de Salamanca, Leon, Spain. My Bachelors and Master of Science degrees/works are in Fine Arts, Foreign Languages & Literature, Linguistics, International Studies, Educational Leadership: Instructional Technology Systems Design, Cognitive & Behavioral Science, Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence, Industrial & Educational Psychology, Human/Computer Interface Design. I spent several years as a nude art model at the universities. A job I absolutely LOVE! It is such a privilege every time! And when specially requested, it is because you know what you are doing, you are a professional. I enjoy being able to contribute to the ARTS from both sides! I am especially intrigued by the undeniable bond between art and healing/medicine. I am the painter, along with Poet, C.C. Arshagra, of The Genetic Bill of Rights Painting Series, a series of 10 paintings + 1 Signature Piece entitled "Consequences" outlining The Genetic Bill of Rights drafted by The Council for Responsible Genetics in 2000. Most people do not even know these rights exist for them....KNOW YOUR RIGHTS! I have exhibited my art nationally and internationally, had sold out shows, and excellent reviews. My art is part of both public and private collections. ART is the PASSION in my soul, my reason for being!
