Works on Paper

Aram's works on paper serve as laboratories for exploring the relationship between drawing and ornamental practice, sites where ideas can be tested and refined before expanding into larger compositions. These intimate works often begin with careful grid structures that provide frameworks for intuitive mark-making, creating dialogues between systematic planning and spontaneous response. The drawings reveal his process most clearly, showing how ornamental motifs emerge from or interrupt geometric structures and how Eastern and Western visual languages negotiate shared space on the page.
