Apollo's Tropic is an exhibition that emerged from the movement between Prague, Paris and Athens.


Néphéli Barbas and Martin Herold explore architecture as a living archive: facades, ornaments and traces of everyday use read as places where time is layered and rewritten. Their works - paintings, objects and spatial installations - emerge like ping pong: the image responds to the object, the structure encounters its own disruption, one approach activates the other. No shape is permanently stabilized.


The key to reading the exhibition is Miller's Tropic of Cancer, not as a literary quotation but as a way of moving through space: fragmentary, intermittent, constantly returning to places we've seen but don't recognize. Apollo enters this world not as a figure of harmony, but as a reminder that change need not mean loss - it can be a way of surviving.
