Signe Ralkov | Hold still: 30 October – 28 November 2025

OTP Copenhagen is proud to present Hold still, a solo exhibition by the Berlin-based artist Signe Ralkov (b. 1997; DK) featuring a series of recent silverpoint drawings and silver gelatin prints.

In Hold still, Signe Ralkov moves among sites where history has been claimed, staged, or repaired. Through photographs and silverpoint drawings she attends to bodies, residues, and repetitions across time - testaments to an imagined past even after it has slipped out of narrative control. The title carries a familiar tenderness: something a mother might say while smoothing a child’s hair, or words spoken just before a kiss. A phrase for catching what is about to move. At the same time, it echoes the pathos of the photograph: that small, melancholic command to stop time, but here, with a slight irony, aware of its own futility (its own cliché).
