NICHOLAS MUELLNER
The photo and text installation journeys through shifting tableaux of exile and solitude in the digital age. Seductive, disorienting, informative and allegorical, In Most Tides an Island is at once a glimpse of contemporary post-Soviet queer life, a meditation on solitude and desire, and an inquiry into the nature of photography and poetry in a world consumed by cruelty, longing, resignation and hope.
This exhibition is a photoseries from Nicholas Muellner’s 2017 book In Most Tides An Island.
