THE ARTIST
Patricia Sahertian was raised right on the border of Brooklyn and Queens, the daughter of Irish and Greek immigrants. Influenced by her visits to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Public Library and the 1964 World’s Fair, she developed a love of visual art at an early age. She has studied painting, printmaking, ceramics and sculpture.
Her fascination with found objects, old letters and late 19th century history is evident in her current work, as is her extensive experience in graphic and multi-media design and film.
Sahertian considers herself a narrator in picture form and is focused on developing her anecdotal style. She also reads coffee grounds.
