Noah's Ark Centerpiece takes its inspiration from the narrative of Noah's Ark and the survival of man and animal after the great flood. Drawing profoundly from Aram's background as an Armenian American this piece celebrates the potent story of the ark landing on Mt. Ararat. "There is so much power in the story of Noah's Ark resting on Mount Ararat in historic Armenia. All great monotheistic deletions accept the ark as a symbolic of mankind's salvation. I wanted to represent it for everyone!" Michael Aram.

Artist bio: Micael Aram is an award-winning American Armenian artist who has dedicated his career to craft-based design. Inspired by a trip to India at age 25, he established a second home and studio there, where he continues to draw creative inspiration today.
Trained as a painter, sculptor and a art historian Michael has neatly applied his diverse background to the decorative arts. Michael's work is also a celebration of craft and age-old hand working traditions. It is the enduring fusion of these ideals -originally, narrative and craftsmanship - that has become the hallmark of this gifted artist.
