Zeynelkhan Mukhamedjan. Kazakh artist, born in Mongolia, 1959. Graduated from Mongolian Art College, tapestry specialty. Breathing a new life into unique Kazakh embroidery Zeynelkhan has made a desperate attempt to save it against the general awareness of the decay and losses in Kazakh arts and crafts. The impetus from which he started in 1986 his long way to find the own style of expression, gave his wife Gulzhay Khusman. Together they have created a ‘biz keste’, the new art, which is a modern artistic direction on the basis of the ancient Kazakh traditional crochet embroidery. Zeynelhan's artistic approach is characterized both an appeal to the archetypes and metaphors of the past with its ideas of perpetual nomadic and modern search. His embroidered artworks convey emotional atmosphere, philosophy and aesthetics of Kazakhstan, the countries of the Great Steppe, and tell about steppe heroes and legends.
