Edgar Grigoryan was born in 1977 in Yerevan, Armenia. He studied at the 1995-2001 P. Terlemezyan Yerevan State Art College. He started to study at Yerevan State Academy of Fine Arts in 2003 and graduated in 2009 with the Ara Sarkisyan award for the Best Master's (MFA) graduation project. Grigoryan's works have been exhibited in numerous collective exhibitions since 2007. In 2009, the artist opened his first solo exhibition titled “Comedy Plus Minus” in Yerevan. The artist held his second solo exhibition titled “dimension H” in 2021 and his third solo exhibition “Let the Machine Defeat Us” in 2022. Believing that art is a dialogue between the artist and the realities of life, Edgar Girgoryan's works are introverted. Similarly, Grigoryan believes that the knowledge of the world begins with the knowledge of oneself first. We see that the artist often uses found or waste materials in his sculptures produced with mixed techniques. Grigoryan, who knows the value of the huge garbage piles created by humanity for a good purpose, is discovering new ways to bring his ideas to life by working with these waste materials. While Grigoryan's works which we can call “Junk Art” or “Arte Povera” due to this approach, do not solve any problem of art, he still aims to create a new artistic dialogue between human and life through his sculptures, which he skillfully transforms from everyday materials.
