Metamorphosis - Exhibition in Prague
The exhibiton Metamorphosis opens on October 4 at the Holešovice Market, Hall 13, in Prague.
The exhibition presents eight artistic approaches that explore how social structures, modes of perception, and memory evolve over time. The presented projects address urgent political and social issues of today – from the impact of conflicts across the Eurasian continent to ecological and introspective themes. They interweave myth, both collective and personal memory, and shifting narratives that influence our ability to understand the past and navigate the present. The exhibiting artists explore how identity is formed between reality and fiction, between individual story and broader societal framework.
Ksenia Ivanova, Benedetta Casagrande, Vitalii Halanzha, Emilia Martin, Anna Orłowska, Yana Wernicke, Viktoriia Tymonova and Balázs Turós differ in visual language and initial context, but are united by their sensitivity to liminal and transitional situations. Their works depict the world as a space of constant change.
The selection of projects was prepared by curators Emese Mucsi (Robert Capa Contemporary Photography Center, Budapest), Raphaëlle Stopin (Centre photographique Rouen Normandie, France) and Světlana Malina (Fotograf Zone, Czech Republic). The theme of the exhibition was developed in close collaboration with Nestan Nijaradze (Artistic Director and co-founder of Tbilisi Photo Festival) and Angel Luis Gonzalez and Julia Gelez (PhotoIreland / OVER Journal). The exhibition, curated by Světlana Malina, is presented for the first time as part of the Fotograf Zone festival in Prague.
Exhibition run: 4 October - 12 October 2025
Location: Holešovice Market, Hall 13, Prague, Czech Republic
