ARMAN SUCIYAN

Arman Suciyan was born and raised in Istanbul where he apprenticed as a teenager in the Grand Bazaar. Educated in London at the prestigious Kent Institute of Art and Design, he launched his first collection in 2004 after an internship and 10 year stint as Stephen Webster’s head wax carver and model maker. Arman’s work is influenced by the sleekness and aerodynamics of the American automobiles of the late 1960’s and 70’s which he saw on the streets of Istanbul.
