When asked about his future plans, Argishti says, “What keeps me engaged in my practice is that unknown, and figuring things out as I work.

The exhibit will be on display through February at “Art Meets Architecture”, in the Eastern Building, 849 S. Broadway, LA, CA 90014. For more information, please see: www.artmeetsarchitecture.com, http://raffisstudio.blogspot.com and http://argishtim.blogspot.com
