Press release

Waiting establishes a particular relationship with time. In waiting, minutes accumulate and stretch, suspended between expectation and delay. (Still) waiting for Godot, an exhibition by Daniel Blaufuks, takes this condition as its starting point, bringing together a group of images that reflect on contemporary experiences of time, memory, and uncertainty. Drawing inspiration from Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett, the artist presents photographs that resist straightforward connections, inviting viewers to move through a field of subtle resonances. Figures caught in moments of waiting, seascapes, trees, ruins, and gestures drawn from everyday life compose a fragmented world shaped by themes such as travel, exile, the passage of time, and the fragility of things. Through the exhibition's installation and the use of different formats, the images create a tension between dispersion and connection, suggesting a world in a latent state. Signs of destruction coexist with gestures of gathering and fragments of nature, evoking multiple temporalities — from the suspended instant of photography to geological duration — and prompting reflection on what endures and what inevitably fades. (Still) waiting for Godot thus unfolds as a kind of visual waiting room: a space of attention and suspension where photography becomes a gesture of observing the present, poised between memory, expectation, and possibility.
