Under the title “Invisible Lines – Reflexionen der Gegenwart” 28 photographers from the Berlin Regional Group of the Female Photoclub explore the invisible boundaries of our society. In a time of growing conflicts and divisions, the photographs illuminate the subtle lines between closeness and distance, familiarity and otherness, community and isolation. The shown works address socio-critical topics, such as the transformation of life, and delve into themes like origin, alternative parenting, and old-age poverty. They depict the handling of personal identity and the challenges faced by marginalized groups. Regional focuses, ranging from successful women in Saxony to growing up in a Spanish enclave in Morocco, highlight the diversity and complexity of the themes. Through a non-male gaze, societal barriers and the possibilities of overcoming them are made visible. “Invisible Lines” establishes a dialogue between individual perspectives and larger social structures, calling for reflection on the fractures of our time and encouraging ways to overcome them.

Unspoken Spaces - Monday 17th March, 2025
Natalia Carstens, Alena Schmick, Maren Katerbau, Chiara Dazi, Jordana Schramm
Quiet, often overlooked spaces are explored that seem inconspicuous at first glance, but reveal deeper, invisible boundaries in everyday life. These places tell of social and personal barriers that remain unspoken and yet characterise our coexistence.

Fractured Views - Tuesday 18th March, 2025
Anne Barth, Katerina Andriuscenco, Su Kim, Dorothea Janina Wagner, Catherine Lieser, Mar Martín
Divided perspectives on society shed light on the deep fractures and fissures that characterise our perception of community and identity. These fragments reflect the diversity of individual experiences, and illustrate how different viewpoints often coexist. They reveal the tensions running between personal experience and collective ideas, and visualise how easily the sense of belonging can break down.

Out of Place - Wednesday 19th March, 2025
Cherie Birkner, Ana Maria Sales Prado, Annette Koroll, Julia Otto, Astis Krause, Stephanie Neumann, Andrea Kueppers
Moments of alienation arise beyond familiar contexts. The works on display explore states of isolation and the falling out of social expectations. In the process, norms are scrutinised and alternative perspectives on social roles and identity are revealed.

Moments of Being - Thursday 20th March, 2025
Isabell Kessler, Victoria Kämpfe, Marie Eberhardt, Silke Mayer, Veronika Hubert Natter
The focus is on intimate moments, in which the self has a place in the world. They invite reflection on identity and existence. The works on display scrutinise traditional role models and show personal moments of change and self-discovery. The result is a sensitive reflection on the many different ways of shaping one's own life and relationships with others.

Echoes - Friday 21th March, 2025
Marlene Gawrisch, Simone Wenth, Gudrun Senger, Kseniia Apresian, Samantha Dietmar
The echo of memories illustrates how experiences from the past have an impact on the present and how personal stories are embedded in larger contexts. The images create a dialogue between the past and the present as well as the constant change of identities and perspectives. They capture the traces of these experiences and show how they shape us and connect us to one another.

The Female Photoclub was initiated in 2017 and has been a registered association since 2020 for professional photographers. Currently, the club has around 500 members who are organized in nine cities and regions across Germany. The association’s goals are to increase the visibility of photographers, advocate for greater equality in the industry, and raise awareness of issues such as pay inequality and lack of representation.
