Sacred in the Mundane, Timeless in the Fleeting

Sacred in the Mundane, Timeless in the Fleeting

"The more I learned about Yezidism in Armenia and its Zoroastrian roots, the deeper my interest in Zoroastrianism grew. This led me to the Multimedia Yasna Project(MUYA), which studies both oral and written traditions of the Zoroastrian Yasna ritual. The project includes a comprehensive video recording of the ritual, with detailed descriptions of each object's role. Fascinated by the ritual's material aspects, I focused my collection on the Yezidis in Armenia, highlighting Zoroastrian elements in the Yezidi religion.

One of the rituals I wanted to spotlight is the Yasna ceremony—a Zoroastrian ritual that intertwines the divine and the mundane. In my new Vertigo collection, I aimed to capture this duality, showcasing how everyday objects can carry deep ritual symbolism. I created several handmade pieces that, I hope, will give people a sense of both the physical and spiritual dimensions of the ritual."

In Vertigo's new season, each piece is crafted to reflect the ceremonial significance of the "Yasna", inviting you to explore the richness of Zoroastrian heritage, as every item in the collection tells a story of ritualistic beauty and enduring tradition. Ritual Yasna collection captures this essence through a curated selection of handmade pieces, ranging from everyday household items to sacred traditional artifacts.
