28th Feb – 8th Mar 26 – Otto Snoek (NL), Ajit Bhadoriya (IN), Andreas Ullrich (DE) – In the Presence of Absence

Opening: Feb 28th 7 PM @ Forplay Society

We are inviting you to a special moment showing our idea of contemporary photography formats at Forplay Society. Otto Snoek (Netherlands), Ajit Bhadoriya (India), and Andreas Ullrich (Germany) have composed a shared, singular installation with fragments of their personal body of work.

Breaking away from the “lone wolf” tradition of the medium, this trio has spent the past weeks developing a collaborative project that blurs the lines between their individual aesthetics. This exhibition, titled “In the Presence of Absence // The Sleeping and Waking of the Twelve Elves”, is a testament to the power of international dialogue and collective creativity.

Dutch street-photography sensibilities, Indian depth, and German conceptualism merge into one collaborative presence.

The artists were part of Goethe Institut Residency programs between Goethe Institut Rotterdam, Goethe Institut Max Mueller Bhavan Bangalore and C.Rockefeller Center Dresden.
