When Benita Suchodrev moved to Berlin in 2008, she was immediately drawn to the city’s vibrant nightlife and to the rich variety of social groups within that milieu. It was here that she began documenting the unique energy of the city’s nightlife through her lens.
“My life in Berlin is inseparable from this body of work. I discovered the city in the process of taking these photographs,” says Suchodrev. Her long-term study has evolved over time, capturing the essence of a city that never sleeps. On 10 October 2024, the exhibition Le bal infernal will open at Fotografiska Berlin, including works from Suchodrev’s archives, as well as new works being shown for the first time.
