Inspired by a fallen pinecone kept on his desk, Aram has always been intrigued by pinecones and their ancient symbolism. The Greeks and Romans, as well as other cultures throughout history, have incorporated pinecones in their art, religious beliefs and mythology with common themes of regeneration, wisdom, and renewal.

“There is something about the structure of pinecones and the fragrance of conifers that I find so compelling. I always bring cut evergreen boughs into my home during the winter season since there is nothing like the festive way they look and smell. For me, they embody the magic and joy of the holidays.” - M.

Michael is highly inspired by his surroundings and often makes sculptures of objects that might otherwise be overlooked in the everyday. Nature is his biggest muse, as is the handmade process.
