Mekhitar Garabedian deciphers key elements in the illuminations of ancient Armenian manuscripts and reincarnates the shadows of the past in a simple and clear linear style with innovative modernity.
The artist explores the core of his cultural roots, traces the lineage of his cultural mixed background, stresses its richness and diversity, lays bare its essential values. He does it with restraint and creates a transparent rendering of his most intimate feelings. Sometimes greatness lies in the details.
Deploying a variety of media such as drawing, video, photography and installation, many of Mekhitar Garabedian’ s works draw from his experience as an immigrant and play on the humour and poetic qualities he finds between languages, cultures and histories. Just as his personal diasporic history is layered, his work echoes with a multiplicity of references to literature, music, philosophy and visual arts.
