publication · 2026-10-05

The series 'Un'opera a settimana' by ArtsLife showcases artists discussing their creations. In the most recent episode, Mikayel Ohanjanyan introduces 'Frammenti di Coscienza #8,' part of his 'Legami' collection. This sculpture features amorphous blocks interconnected by stainless steel cables, embodying the tension between unity and fragmentation. Each polished block represents pieces of a unified whole—a memory of primal vibration. Ohanjanyan emphasizes that the work highlights significant social, cultural, and political contradictions, prompting contemplation on 'Legami' (bonds) with oneself, others, nature, and the cosmos.
