Comes with signed certificate of authenticity. "Red Elephant" is a striking sculpture that masterfully blends diverse materials and textures to bring its subject to life. This unique piece is skillfully crafted from iron, tufa, and plexiglass. Created in 2023, the artwork presents an abstract interpretation of an elephant, rendered with an intense red plexiglass that drapes elegantly over the robust tufa base, suggesting the majestic form of the animal. The iron elements are twisted and turned, forming the delicate yet strong frame of the elephant, emphasizing the contrast between the animal's massive presence and the inherent delicacy of life. This sculpture is not only a representation of one of nature's most revered creatures but also a metaphor for strength, resilience, and the beauty of the natural world. It's a contemporary homage to wildlife, perfect for collectors who appreciate bold statements and innovative use of materials in art.

Presentation
Karen Axikyan was born in Yerevan, Armenia, in 1963. He has always loved art and lives there. At different periods of his life, Karen Axikyan was interested in different spheres of art. First he drew oil paintings, then he started painting beautiful batik scarves, and then he moved on to the amazing world of sculptures.
In short, he is interested in everything related to art. For the past 15 years, he has been creating metal sculptures. It is said that he has a huge zoo with his different and wild animals. As Karen Axikyans says, he does not decide which animal what type of emotion the sculpture should have, he decides its emotion. Without having any cultural education, he was always in art, the only education he received was the artist who was his neighbor and he generally spent his time following the artists' works.
Karen Axikyan says metal is an instrument through which she can convey her emotional states. When creating a sculpture, her soul seems to be cleansed. Her latest collection is called "Little World" because the sculptures are so small they can fit in the palm of her hand.
