what is
ARTIFICIAL VANITY
Founded by Armen Atoyan in 2008, Artificial Vanity is an inspirational online magazine. True inspiration comes from the mind of the beholder. Photographic inspiration allows you to use your imagination, whereas words often come with a side of inspirational persuasion. If a picture is worth a thousand words, why have words? Thatʼs my motto anyway. As for the meaning of the name “Artificial Vanity”... Being a digital magazine this is not a tangible entity, therefore it is artificial. In regards to vanity, lets just say you need only look in a mirror...
“If a picture is worth a thousand words, why have words?”
Where do the images come from? The contents of the magazine are both original photographs by Armen Atoyan as well as images taken from, mostly unknown, online sources.
