Exbition Orbital at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery Berlin

January 8 - February 15 , Private View: Wednesday, 7th of January 2026, 6-8pm

 ‘The earth, from here, is like heaven. It flows with colour. A burst of hopeful colour.’ Taken from Samantha Harvey’s novel Orbital, this line captures the strange duaity at the heart of the exhibition: the exhilaration of seeing our world from a distance, and the quiet ache that such distance can produce. Orbital, at Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery, Berlin, brings together painting, sculpture, collage and prints by artists who look to the cosmos not for escape, but as a way of reframing our relationship with the Earth and with one another. Across their works, celestial imagery becomes a lens for thinking about vulnerability, ecological change and how we understand our place in the world. Janet Vollebregt will show 4 works among works artists Alina Birkner, Joan Deckmann, Kyriaki Goni, Alexa Kumiko Hatanaka, Parsa Hosseinpour, Melanie King, Anna Kubelik, Eeman Masood and Hormazd Narielwalla.
