Nairy Baghramian’s nameless unfolded as a symphony of textures, colours, and materials. Baghramian builds her compositions, as if they were symphonies, around moments of softness and stillness, as well as tension and density. 

She articulates space — both full and empty — through physical, bold, and hard installations that contrast with the airy and eerie play of light as it is caught and refracted by glass and aluminum. She ably arranges these reflective fields, placing decisive colours in strategic places, creating a visual choreography faintly reminiscent of stained-glass interiors. There are shadows of us, of the walls, of the works; they expand the visible field, opening passages toward other, parallel spaces.
