Neshan Minassian is an Iraqi born, British-Armenian contemporary artist based in London. His art explores and weaves together multiple layers of personal and cultural identity. He uses colour, texture, and form inspired by his Iraqi Armenian heritage to evoke a desire to return to a distant yet unforgettable time.

Exploring how the threads of intergenerational joy, pain and connection weave together

to create a dream-like nostalgia and homesickness for times and places never visited, his recent exhibition gar chgar (there was, and there was not) ran at the Koppel Collective in London from the 18th to the 21st of July 2026.
