Varazdat Hambardzumyan

National master Varazdat Hambardzumyan recalls 1992, when cold silence dominated everywhere and it was so hard to live. It was then that he created his first khachkar (cross stone).
Up today, all his works are born in front of his house on Arami street, under the open sky. Over 250 khachkars are placed in various locations of Armenia, as well as in Greece, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates, Turkey – inside the wall of an Armenian Church, USA, Russia, Brasil, Miami. He jokingly notes, that Africa seems to be the only place left unfamiliar with his works. He believes in the presence of God in every single human being, the only constraint being the hardship of living honestly, contemplates our hero.
