Sirak Melkonian and a 50-Year-Old Abstraction in Raha Gallery Collection

Sirak Melkonian’s 1975 painting is far more than a visual abstraction—it is a mental architecture of time, memory, and land. A fusion of muted colors, weighty forms, and spatial density transforms this work into a point of contemplation. Simultaneously architectural, poetic, and philosophical, the piece embodies a reflective experience.
