The exhibition Orpheus presents an ongoing project by Alexey Dubinsky, the MQ Artist-in-Residence for March and April 2025. Exploring the theme of historical cyclicity, Dubinsky draws connections between the current geopolitical landscape and his childhood experiences during the Chechen war. By layering personal memories, photographic documentation, and cultural symbols, he constructs surreal scenes in which historical and mythological figures merge into new, absurd constellations.
curated by Arina Nekliudova
Alexey Dubinsky, born in Grozny (Chechnya) in 1985, experienced the war at a young age and was forced to flee. Today, the artist lives and works in Tbilisi, Georgia.
