“About two years have passed since the war, and new children are born in my heroes’ families, many girls are trying to form new families, and many mothers are trying to live in these difficult times, and that is the best example of a rebirth for me.” Mery Chibukhchyan’s new performance is named “The Rebirth of 44.”
This is the second performance by Mery and M Dance Studio, which is staged in Ijevan Culture House. Last year the dance performance entitled “The delayed morning of hope” was staged in the same place.
Mary says that there are feelings that can only be expressed in the language of art, and the two performances were born from the parts of the story made up of those feelings. Seeing Manvel’s (immortalized in the war) newborn brother Emanuel and his living family again, Mary came to the image of the rebirth, to which the new performance is dedicated.
“The most important advice for me is that the Heroes live in each of us; as long as we live, as long as we remember and talk about them, their stories are not left unfinished,” says Mary.
