Well travelled, Avedissian finds icons from traditional arts and local cultures around the world, but specifically in the Silk Route, and transfers them to his own universe. Since 1990, his most known work focuses in painted stencils on cardboard, showing the icons he found during his trips all around the world trough several countries, from Egypt to Uzbekistan, Paris to Canada, from Cuba to Greece. Avedissian stencils collect symbols and icons from every corner visited by the artist and translate them into his own artistic language.
