About event
[ENG below] The name of the exhibition Healing refers to various forms of healing – body, experience and relationships. The starting point for the presented series of photos by Ján Kekeli was a knee injury the author suffered while climbing – an activity that is fundamentally defining for him.
The images were created during the period of injury, convalescence and gradual return to movement. However, Kekeli does not create a documentary in the traditional sense of the word; rather, it forms a visual map of the process in which physical injury becomes an impetus for the revitalization of relationships – to loved ones, to space, and to oneself.
Photography works here as a tool of sensitivity: it allows the author to slow down, reassess his own limits, and relearn the way he inhabits the world. Healing thus takes place not only on a physical level, but also on the level of identity, memory and interpersonal ties.

The title of the exhibition Healing refers to various forms of healing – of the body, of lived experience, and of relationships. The starting point for the presented series of photographs by Ján Kekeli was a knee injury the artist suffered while climbing, an activity that is integral to his identity.
The photographs were created during the period of injury, convalescence, and gradual return to movement. However, Kekeli does not document in the traditional sense; rather, he constructs a visual map of a process in which physical injury becomes an impulse to renew relationships – with others, with space, and with himself.
Photography here becomes a tool for heightened sensitivity: it allows the artist to slow down, reassess his limits, and rediscover the way he inhabits the world. Healing thus unfolds not only on a physical level, but also across identity, memory, and interpersonal relationships.
