“HAPPINESS OF LIGHTS PUSHED TO THE SHORE“, 03'11”, video, 2024
In the video “The Happiness of Lights Pushed to the Shore”, the erased traces of a community reappear in an unexpected place: the cart of a waste collector.
The work creates an abstract space of confrontation with a history that has been covered over, yet frames this confrontation as a form of collective insistence. The ghosts of once-hidden faces emerge in the light-filled cart of someone who gathers discarded materials, a figure usually overlooked. Around Khorenyan, the flickering lights that cling to the place evoke the experience of uncovering an insistence on seeing despite destruction.
