The Gooseberry Collection takes its inspiration from the intricacies of form and texture found in foliage from around the world. By interpreting plant forms in cast metal, Aram presents work, which is evocative of a natural environment transformed and redefined. Each piece is an intimate expression of Aram's individual creativity as well as an object of infinite and timeless meaning. "For me, the shapes conjure a sense of freshness and fragility. At the same time the textures represent a metaphor for life itself … growth, vitality, pulsation. I love the contrast of the top and bottom surfaces. They speak of duality in all its incarnations: yin and yang, Ganga and Yamuna, dark and light. I believe everybody has an emotional response when they see natural objects."
