mamik and babik contemporary art

This work of art is based on a monument by sculptor Sargis Baghdasaryan that he carved from red tuff stone and is located in Stepanakert which is currently being bombed by Azerbaijan.
.
Armenians are the indigenous people of these lands and in fact are named after Mount Ararat, which Was violently taken by Turkey. Aggression is once again being used to remove Armenians from mountains for which they have identified as their parents for millennia, thus the title of the monument “Mamik and Babik” (Mother and Father).
