Georgia
MolitorFor her second solo exhibition at Galerie Molitor opening during Gallery Weekend Berlin 2026, Ketuta Alexi-Meskhishvili presents a new body of work that unfolds across varied material approaches. For Georgia, Alexi-Meskhishvili takes the delayed discovery of a close relative via an ancestry and genealogy DNA test as a starting point. Questions of doubles and doppelgangers, as well as thresholds of the unknown, imbue the show, as Alexi-Meskhishvili also plays with shifts in perspective by exhibiting a pair of aluminum dye-sublimation prints in horizontal, table-like frames. Her innovative and idiosyncratic melding of digital and analogue techniques sees Instagram screenshots digitally altered and printed on transparent rice paper, collaged and placed onto blank large format negatives, which Alexi-Meskhishvili illuminates with colorful finger lights. In the resulting analogue C-prints and digital dye sublimation photographs, a recurrent female form seems to surface and recede into an abstracted emulsion of reds and yellows.
