Personage explores the unstable boundary between the body and abstraction. In Hovsepian’s work, photography is not treated as a fixed document, but as something sculptural and associative—capable of carrying memory, touch, absence, and desire simultaneously.
This print continues that investigation through layering, balance, and the tension between precision and intimacy. The composition brings together photographic images and handmade paper through the chine-collé process, introducing both fragility and tactility.
Hovsepian is particularly interested in how materials can hold emotional and psychological resonance beyond representation alone.
