About
Exhibition
From September 1 to 30, 2026, Alexei Maridashvili exhibits 'Saudade', a black-and-white photograph from the series 'Alone', at window gallery 'De Prachtvink' at the Vinkhuizen shopping center. The work shows the storefront of restaurant Ke Kou on the Grote Markt in Groningen, creating a sense of alienation through a small section of the facade. A figure in a long raincoat holding an umbrella waits beside an empty chair. The photo was taken in May 2024 and is part of an ongoing exploration of loneliness within the crowd and silent distance between people and the city they inhabit.
