THE STORY BEHIND THE PRODUCT
Artisan Organization: Armen Khachatryan
Country: Armenia
"I'm Armen, a dedicated wood artisan with a profound commitment to keeping Armenian traditions alive through the timeless art of woodcarving. My mission is to reintroduce people to the rich cultural heritage that has sadly faded over time. Through my work, I create decorative pieces reminiscent of those cherished by our ancestors throughout the centuries.
"My choice of materials is deliberate, often using wood sourced as a byproduct from factories or select fruit trees like walnut and pear. This approach not only emphasizes sustainability but also pays homage to nature's beauty.
"With 15 years of experience teaching the intricacies of wood art and carving, I've developed a curriculum tailored for school children. My aspiration is to transform this educational program into a textbook, ensuring the continuity of this invaluable craft."
"Collaborating with Novica holds the promise of inspiring a new generation and fostering a profound appreciation for our cultural legacy. Together, we can bridge the past and the present, carrying the essence of Armenian traditions into the future."
