About Vahagn Hambardzumyan Ceramic designer Vahagn Hambardzumyan founded Sisian Ceramics in 2004. Today he and his wife, painter Zara Gasparyan, work together to help develop and sustain Armenia’s cultural heritage—especially ceramics—in southern Armenia. During Soviet times, many ancient traditions faded due to rapid industrialization and urbanization, but they are now coming back. Individuals like Hambardzumyan and Gasparyan share their knowledge and skills with anyone interested in the traditions that were lost. The pottery they create in Sisian is helping them link ancient traditions to decorative art while developing local capacity in ceramics and promoting local tourism development in Sisian. |
