In 1981 graduated from the Yerevan Art College after P. Terlemezyan. He lives and develops his work in Sisian. From 1981 till now teaches at Children Art School in Sisian. Having the cultural heritage of different time periods of his living area as a standing point, the artist always seeks for searching new perspectives of world-perception. The conceptual and artistic prospects of Neolithic petroglyphs to Middle Age iconographic culture are transposed from the surface of canvas into the forms of modern art, appearing in the context of performance. Ashot is regularly creating art exhibitions in Sisian and attracts thousands of people to take part.
