THE STORY BEHIND THE PRODUCT
Artisan Organization: Zara Gasparyan
Country: Armenia
"I am Zara Gasparyan, an artist and specialist in decorative applied arts. I use local raw materials, specifically clay from the Sisian mountains. I process this clay to create small, intricate jewelry pieces. The clay undergoes fermentation at high temperatures and is treated using traditional Armenian techniques, including engobes and high-quality glazes. I combine these clay elements with leather and silver, resulting in unique and distinctive jewelry. My designs are inspired by the petroglyphs (rock carvings) of Ughtasar, symbolizing life and eternity. Each piece carries its own meaning, and I like to create themed collections.
"I also create silk scarves that are illustrated using the hot batik technique. I use European dyes for the illustrations and also experiment with natural dyes derived from roots, barks, flowers, and fruits. These natural dyes give the scarves a unique appearance and a range of beautiful shades.
"I have participated in numerous national and international exhibitions. In 2018, I took part in the Folk Life Festival organized by the Smithsonian Institute. I conducted batik and jewelry-making master classes, engaging with thousands of visitors.""
