About this lot
“Մայր Հայաստան (Mayr Hayastan)” captures the unshakable pride and resilience of the Armenian people. This series exposes viewers to the triumph of the collective Armenian soul — despite the consistent, treacherous attempts to erase it.
Reflections extracted from personal conversations with her late grandfather (a first-generation child affected by the 1915 Armenian Genocide) uncover the long-lasting consequences of genocide denial. The series tells the story of 1.5 million lives taken, lives that remain forgotten, and the lives of Armenians today in Artsakh that are forced to face repeated history. Through jagged brush strokes, distressed layers, and eye contact between the object and the viewer, central hemes of struggle, loss, strength, pride and perseverance are exhibited.
