Angles in polymer
- • Vahan was born in Armenia and moved to Ukraine
- • An architect by education, he experiments with material and form
- • He has a recognisable style of sculpting polymer clay
A well-known artisan in Ukraine, Vahan Avakian is a tireless innovator who is constantly on the search for new milestones in his craft. Opening a workshop in 2014, he has firmly placed himself as one of the brightest stars of modern Ukrainian designer sculpture. He primarily uses polymer clay for creating objects, a material that is both flexible and solid. The versatility of polymer allows Vahan to create very detailed works. “I create things that give people emotion and comfort, adding more beauty to the world.” His trademark is his polygonal style. He scrupulously constructs each item by hand defying the rise of the mass market and prides himself on delivering the highest quality in his sculptures without being afraid to shake the status quo.
