The video is based on a research that follows cases of seventeen exhibitions by Palestinian artists ­, ¬each contained different artworks and exhibited in different countries around the world ­, ¬the 17 ­ ¬exhibitions are considered missing today due to the challenges caused by the Israeli government associated with returning the artworks to Palestine ­. The Moon is a Sun Returning as a Ghost follows one of these cases ­, ¬an exhibition that took place in 2005 ­ ¬in the swiss town of Martigny ­, ¬the works could not be returned to the artists and were instead moved from a country to another and from one storage facility to another ­. The video questions how the immateriality of missing objects affects our memory of them ­, especially in a colonized context where the materiality of the object is constantly in danger ­ ¬of being manipulated, boomed or stolen . ¬The work shows that by poetically liberating historiography from its objecthood ­, ¬more narratives can emerge that extend beyond the materiality of the object in which it is transmitted orally ­. ¬
