you can sail without wind… by Sif MEINCKE
November 1st – January 1st, 2025
For the first time, In The Gallery presents an exhibition featuring the work of art photographer Sif Meincke. The exhibition, you can sail without wind, offers an unexpected perspective on urban life, using the harbour as a setting for calm, reflection, and immersion. Unlike the usual lively and bustling images associated with city harbours, this collection centers on the harbour as a peaceful space, a place where moments of silence and presence can emerge.
Sif Meincke’s you can sail without wind focuses on this contrast, showing the urban landscape not through the lens of chaos or dynamism, but as an environment that fosters personal pause and reflection. With her careful composition, Meincke reveals how even the busiest parts of the city offer hidden moments of calm, where one can pause, breathe, and reflect on the movements of life. The exhibition highlights a much-needed breathing space in a world driven by progress and efficiency. It reminds us of the harbour’s timeless presence in the cityscape—a bridge between human activity and the natural rhythms of the water.
