norary at creative space

norayr khachatrayan was born in armenia. since 1999 he has been living and working in belgium. norayr graduated in 2007 from the st-lukas Institute in brussels.

I met norayr when I went to the ‘craft wood’ exhibition at the kreon showroom in brussels last month. together himself and close friend/colleague kaspar hamacher are presenting their work with the support of promateria, european network of creative cities until 13th march this year.

I knew kaspar’s work before but norayr’s name didn’t ring any bells. when I entered the showroom I recognized the table that look like a reflection of itself. n-7 is a single piece of cast aluminium strongly inspired by the military and produced by italian brand casamania. this work was norayr’s first breakthrough, and is now followed by a bookshelf and a stool that continue his high quality of workmanship.
