We’re delighted to invite you to the opening of Unearthed, Álvaro Trabanco’s first solo exhibition in Türkiye. He presents dozens of analog photographs of the historical Thracian Chersonese, captured in this long-term project. The artist invites you to explore a land scarred by military conflicts, partially frozen in time due to its protected status, where agriculture shapes its landscape.
Photographers can only show what is present today. Trabanco is interested in suggesting the absent. His photographic practice makes us reflect on the capabilities of photography to portray complex, less visited territories, whose layers of history may be absent, but mark their future.
