She has participated in several group shows in USA, Greece, France, Italy, Germany, China and Russia. She is an alumnus of the Triangle Arts Workshop (2012) and the Triangle Arts 6 months residency (2014). During that time, she was invited to lead a textile arts workshop at the Immigrant Movement International of the Queens Museum, NY. (2014). In 2019 she was an invited artist at the Officinenove Associazione Culturale in Rome. In the summer of the same year, she was awarded a studio on Governors Island. From May 2022 – July 2023 she was a Project Studio resident artist at the PS122 in the LES, NYC. Her work belongs to many private and public collections in Europe and USA. She currently divides her time between Athens and New York. Statement I started using thread in my work more than thirty years ago. I liked the practical properties of the material, thread’s use to put things together, to mantle, to unify. Threads also soothed my desire for fluidity: I could manipulate them to create mass, sculptural forms, to penetrate the canvas or just leave them loose. At the same time thread held a symbolic meaning for me. As a young girl growing up in Greece needle -work was an activity that kept us busy in the late afternoons. That was my first experience with canvas and I was fascinated by the cleanness, vibrancy and variety of the colors of thread. The act of cutting and sewing patches of fabric reflects my need to put together pieces of three different worlds. Being an Armenian who was born in Greece and immigrated to America, I never had a profound sense of wholeness. I constantly strive to create a balanced and unified space. In my artwork I incorporate techniques of drawing, painting, sewing and weaving. I aim to create visual parallels between rational and cosmological worlds through constructing and deconstructing, layering and erasing, scraping and marking, unraveling and reconnecting. Eozen Agopian’s work incorporates drawing, painting, sewing and weaving. She started using thread in her work more than thirty years ago and is attracted to the ways it is used to put things together, the fluidity of the fibers and its ability to penetrate the canvas or to hang loose. Thread also symbolizes the needlework that Agopian made while growing up in Greece. The act of cutting and sewing patches of fabric reflects the artist’s need to put together pieces of three different worlds. Agopian explains: “Being an Armenian who was born in Greece and immigrated to America, I never had a profound sense of wholeness. I constantly strive to create a balanced and unified space.” Exhibited in "Talking Threads," Susan Eley Fine Art, Hudson, NY
