Hratch Babikian

and his helper.

Exotic, guttural, and unique are just some of the words art enthusiasts use to describe Hratch Babikian's work. Inspired by nature and all life forms, this established artist creates jewelry and sculpture that is contemplative and stunning. "My interest in the cultural existences of people past, present, and future has influenced my work. Coming from a diverse mixture of Eastern and Western cultural backgrounds, most of my work is based on writings and calligraphic drawings; cultural, political, and personal messages through my own life experiences."
