Waiting Field is an exhibition of immersive video installations by four emerging artists exploring the intersection of cinema and visual art. Like a field shaped by time and subtle shifts, the exhibition reflects on waiting – as a condition, a space, and a method –where images and meanings slowly take form.
Featuring works by Alexandra Pavlovskaya-Lokchine, Kimia Khedri, Michał Kucharski, and Lyy Raitala.
Opening: Friday, 6 June from 19:00 to 23:00
Exhibition hours: from Saturday 7 June to Tuesday 10 June, 13:00-19:00 and Wednesday, 11 June, 13:00-16:00
The title Waiting Field refers to a space that is both literal and metaphorical – a place shaped by time, transformation, and anticipation. The exhibition reflects the temporal nature of video and the quiet tension of waiting: for meaning, for resolution, for something to emerge.Working in the undefined space between film and visual art, each artist approaches video not just as a storytelling device but as a sculptural, spatial, and conceptual medium. Their works explore the thresholds between reality and fiction, absence and presence, stillness and movement.
Kimia Khedri (b. 2003, Tehran, Iran) is a visual artist based in The Hague. She investigates disorientation, memory, and the invisible connections between identity and place.
Alexandra Pavlovskaya-Lokchine (born 2002 in Moscow, Russia) is a visual artist and cinematographer based in the Hague and in Paris. She captures suspended moments — foggy landscapes, deserted alleys — where time feels paused and memory lingers.
Michał Kucharski (born in 1997 in Krakow, Poland) is a visual artist based in The Hague, working primarily with videography and photography. With his work, he approaches the medium as a sculptural object, examining how narratives unfold through space and tension.
Lyy Raitala (1999) is a Finnish lens-based artist living in the Netherlands. She constructs surreal, fragmented scenes drawn from everyday life, using humor and subtle interventions to destabilize the familiar.
Together, these works form a shared terrain – a waiting field – where the moving image becomes a site of reflection, transformation, and encounter.
