Leesa and Nicole Abahuni

The “untitled” interactive installation features a non-verbal communicative instrument developed with the people of the mountainous region of Nagorno-Karabagh, neighboring Armenia. The works offer the sense of giving something back to forgotten peoples and propose using aural, visual, and tactile modalities to move languages of sensation beyond memory and time. Also known as The Turbo Twins, the Abahuni’s have shown their work at the the Tate Modern and Institute of Contemporary Art, London, Eyebeam Atelier, the Kitchen, and at the DUMBO Arts Under the Bridge Festival.
