Description
IMPORTANT: Buyers from the USA and UK will not be charged any import taxes or customs duties for artworks.
Buyers from EU countries may be subject to a reduced import VAT, typically ranging from 5% to 10%, depending on the country.
A solitary figure with a richly textured, patinated body sits on a small chair inside a tall copper-wire cage, set on spoked wheels and topped with a delicate umbrella. The slender, hand-bent bars glow in warm amber and bronze tones and rest on a rough, porous stone base. Part allegory, part curious toy, the work explores inner life, confinement, and protection: a person carrying a whole world within, sheltered yet bound. Fine copper craftsmanship contrasts with the raw natural stone, creating a poetic, surreal object that is both fragile and enduring. A thought-provoking piece for collectors of symbolic and narrative sculpture.
Presentation
Sargis Hovhannisyan is an Armenian sculptor born in 1995 in Yerevan. His passion for three-dimensional form revealed itself early — he began sculpting at just six years old, working intuitively with whatever materials were at hand: plasticine, wood, and metal.
He completed his general education between 2002 and 2010, before continuing his studies at the Physics and Mathematics stream of the NPUA Senior School from 2010 to 2013 — a background that lends a quiet precision and structural logic to his artistic thinking.
Sargis works primarily in mixed media, combining stone and copper in ways that feel both ancient and entirely contemporary. He also works in the Steampunk style, bringing mechanical imagination and layered texture into his sculptural vocabulary. Above all, he is guided by a deep commitment to natural materials — in his world, the artificial has no place. Everything that enters his work must carry the weight and honesty of the natural world.
At the heart of his practice are deeply human themes: inner feeling, emotional experience, and the complexity of human relationships. His sculptures do not simply occupy space — they invite the viewer inward, toward something felt rather than merely seen.
Sargis Hovhannisyan is an artist of quiet conviction, carving meaning from stone and copper with hands that have been learning the language of form since childhood.
