Vartan Markarian’s digital work “Alone in the crowd” conveys the impression of isolation. In the midst of a pile of rubble and rubbish, a man stands obliviously in a cocoon of plastic film. Surrounded by that, he gropingly loses himself, fumbling in the remnants of his civilization. The pictorial impression of the nature surrounding him and the edited sky at least hold out the prospect of the creative power of nature, counteracting the destruction and man, as part of the whole, finding his way again in an order in which he does not see himself as the pinnacle of evolution.
