Annamarta Dostourian is an artist and designer based in Berkeley, California. Her multimedia works explore the complexities of overlapping cultural identities; of being both Armenian and American. Most recently she’s been knitting, crocheting, and weaving metal jewelers’ wire into unusual forms and couture onto which light or images are projected, creating shadows which are intricate parts of the sculptures and installations. This delicate media allows expression of her sense of subtle realms of light and space.

The corner storefront is equal parts gallery, boutique, studio workspace, garment re-construction factory, style hub, and general one- stop waypoint for cultural re-fitting.
For Hot Couture 2013, Coyote developed a conceptual collection of smart garments with an eye towards integrating some of the newest technologies out there with some of the oldest.
