• Photography Exhibition | Mane Hovhannisyan
• Sound Installation | theatrum phonosophicum
The main idea of this photo series is to show the different kinds of interaction between humans, objects, and places. Of particular interest to Mane Hovhannisyan are the moments, when the people seem to become totems, and the objects appear to be revitalized. This is what she calls a “magic” documentary.
The story of FABULA was realized between 2017 and 2019 in two different places: the first one
in the apartment of Shushan Hyusnunts and Leopoldo Siano (protagonists of FABULA) in a village called Kürten, in the middle of the Rhenish forest (Germany); and the second one in the legendary flat of cinema critique Chaga Yuzbashyan in Yerevan, where the couple lived for a while.
Besides being the performers of the cycle (silently and mysteriously – interacting with Mane Hovhanisyan as complices), Shushan Hyusnunts and Leopoldo Siano, who are the founders of the Theatrum Phonosophicum, have also created a sound installation specially for this exhibition, which is based on field recordings realized site-specific in the two apartments where the shootings have been done. The result is a superimposition of different sound spaces, of different ‘realities’, which can be permanently listened to throughout the exhibition.
