Series: Portraits of the Dead

“The bound nuclei of these pieces provide a continuous link to Kardash’s manifestation of an Armenian swan song, a eulogy for this homeless, diasporan community.”

“Portraits of the Dead reaches us as a talisman, a sculpture that shakes our very essence, our cultural precepts, and yet enables those who share in its theater the option of faith, that same faith which is the foundation of the power of all talismans.”
