There is a moment the finger hesitates—half-scrolling, half-stuck. The horror of what is shown, and the numbness of what follows.

In the exhibition Don’t Skip Farah Barakat and Anna Khodorkovsakya present newly produced bodies of work that disturb the smoothness of official narratives. Working from screenshots pulled from social media, the artists reflect on how power is performed and how violence is normalized. Their works do not aim to clarify. They distort. Repeat. Linger. They reflect the rhythm of forgetting and the cost of witnessing without power.

Don’t Skip confronts the visual noise we absorb and the distance we create to survive it. Don’t Skip is not a plea. It’s a fracture. A disruption in tempo. A screen-grabbed breath held too long. It’s what happens when the feed spills over into the body—quietly, uninvited, unresolved.

Exhibition dates: November 12, 2025 – January 10, 2026
