Alexej Sachov at boot Dusseldorf 2026

Maritime Art / Galeria boot - Hall 7, Booth A30

A large solo booth presenting six years of work. Twenty-three pieces across eight series - from oceanic abstractions at 180 cm to intimate coral studies and night-dive encounters. Every image made underwater, on dive, without compositing or digital manipulation.

Waves, coral surfaces, hidden creatures, black-and-white codes of nature, and the raw energy of the ocean at night. The booth brought together all directions of Sachov's practice for the first time in a single space.
