სიცოცხლის უეცარი შეგრძნება / the sudden sense of life video was conceived and produced during the Art Prospect Network Residency at the State Silk Museum in early Fall 2022 as a one long shot video that plays to close the gaps that history left behind about Sericulture and importance to the local identity and collective memories. By a flying-like shot –a butterfly’s vision– takes you to the main entrance of the State Silk Museum then throughout the main staircase to the second floor and consequently into the main permanent gallery and with the use of a voice-over that takes you throughout this physical and organic journey of words definitions that connects with local collective memories.
