Khachik Bozoghlian is an artist best known for his work in bronze. With New York,
London and Teheran among the cities he has called home, Bozoghlian's experience of
displacement provides the insider/outsider

 

 

 

 

 


perspective that distinguishes his work. "Nothing in my life has been secure or permanent,
but the bronze, for me, is an empathic statement otherwise. I am of Armenian descent, born in
Teheran. I was forced to exhile early on and made London my home for a long time.
This experience contributes to a sense of impermanence that has permeated my life".

Khachik Bozoghlian currently lives and creates his art work in New York. Khachik's talent
lies with his hands. His sensitivity to touch has enabled him to create various shapes and
textures. For a period of time he operated his own handcraft shop while he designed and
produced jewelry. This experience led to bronze sculpting. It is this medium which best expresses
his inner nature.

An accomplished artist, his unique pieces depict many aspects of human emotion. With his bronze
sculptures, he funnels his irrepressible energies into the creation of figures that are sensual,
grotesque, perverse, violent, even crazy. His approach is intimate - an impassioned reflection of
his intense awareness of the body. Khachik Bozoghlian is a keen observer with an outsider's peculiar
blend of attraction to and distrust of convention.
