Sahak Poghosyan: silence of my grandmother's eyes

March 13, 2015 – May 31, 2015 Silence of my grandmother's eyes exhibition presents a project by Sahak Poghosyan.

Genocide and extermination as a crime against humanity and humanism are impossible to tell. It is impossible, not because it is difficult to picture events in fine arts, but since it is impossible to see and comprehend their terrible extent, it is impossible to open their countless and terrifying folds. Sahak Poghosyan in his project, while making substitutions between speech and image,
hearing and vision, comes to say: – even if there are no forms to present what is indescribable and unimaginable, even if it is impossible to hear the words told by eyes, then, at least, one can materialize the silence cumulated in them to make visible what is inaudible.
