"Silence IV" (Լռության կաթիլային) is the second in the recently started series of video-bites shot entirely on cellphone. Playing with lights on interior surfaces the artist is working through the conflicts between her immediate surroundings and split identity, as well as its place in her own art.

"Silence IV" is the second in the series of video-bites made after "A Peculiar Place i." Both works were shot on cellphone, and are an exploration/meditation on a split identity of the artist (immigration, immediate surrounding, internal space). If "A Peculiar Place i." is incorporating a play of sunlight and a flashlight, "Silence IV" is a step inward, presenting the viewer with various interior surfaces under the spotlight of a flashlight, playing and distorting their habitual meanings.
