Poghosyan’s figurative series has explored the physical and psychological effects of alienation, solitude, and longing that punctuate the human experience at various stages in life.

Partly autobiographical, this seminal body of work uses the formal properties of painting to recreate the subconscious sense of enclosure that surfaces during different phases of life, whether in the event of loneliness, union, inner harmony or conflict.
