Artist: Arpy Gokceyan (Lebanese-Armenian)
Born in 1988, Arpy Gokceyan is a Lebanese-Armenian conceptual artist based in Brussels.
After obtaining her master's degree in industrial design at ALBA in
Beirut, she worked in the field of lighting design for over 5 years.
In 2018, an encounter with an old Lebanese potter marked an interesting turning point in her journey, leading her to find her passion in ceramics.
She is fascinated by the material's memory, its different possible textures, its richness as well as its sonic potential.
She, therefore, decides to deepen her knowledge in this field at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Visuels de La Cambre in Brussels in 2019.
Today, her ceramic sculptures bear witness to her interest in the human consciousness, the unconscious, and the unknown that she conjugates in her installations and performances.
