Story:
My goal with this piece was to capture a defining moment of darkness. A moment in the valley that proves no way out. However, the more one stares at this piece, the more light begins to reveal itself through the hint of brightness. Real life and events have contributed to emotions I have to process and simultaneously express.
This collection is a call for everyone to believe in a hope beyond that defining moment of darkness. In 2025 many viewers of my work of all ages had unfortunately an embedded family or personal history of displacement, war or conflict of some sort. This sense of justice has been key to the work I create since 2020. My activism transitioned and emerged from an artistic place with a desire to uplift and encourage my community and create a colourful world integrating the tragic experiences that could be understood by all.
The event that plays into the symbolism of this piece is the 2020 war. This scene abstractly depicts the two Armenian cross-stones (khachkars) that still stand after being saved from from destruction. Dadivank Monastery is currently within Azerbaijani territory. These heritage pieces were rescued after the war’s end in 2020, sent to Yerevan by the Abbot at the time in efforts to preserve precious cultural heritage. Azerbaijan said this was illegal till today continues to deny the Armenian heritage claiming it as Caucasian Albanian.
