‘Perpetuum Vestigium’ 2024
/Latin, which means — Truths carved in stone/
This is Tigranes II, more commonly known as Tigranes the Great /Tigran Mets in Armenian, 140–55 BC/.
He was a king of Armenia.
A member of the Artaxiad dynasty, he ruled from 95 BC to 55 BC.
Under his reign, the Armenian kingdom expanded beyond its traditional boundaries and reached its peak, allowing Tigranes to claim the title Great King or King of Kings.
His empire for a short time was the most powerful state to the east of the Roman Republic.
A sovereign immortalized in fractured rock, eternal texture, and the language of symbols.
Look closely.
Beneath his crown, embedded in the dark and slicing the moon —
a map of Great Armenia, preserved in the Museum of the Vatican.
An echo of a once vast land, hidden in plain sight.
His form is chiseled like the cliffs of time.
Rough, raw, enduring.
The golden arc behind him?
A sun.
A nod to a pagan legacy, when Armenians revered the solar deity.
Notice how the sun’s halo merges with his crown,
while also slicing through the moon, which lies beneath.
Sun above, moon below.
A cosmic hierarchy.
According to Gurdjieff,
every celestial body is conscious.
And the sun?
The highest consciousness in this system.
It rules.
The moon?
it obeys.
Who worship the moon —
We all know.
Now, make your own conclusions.
