Nikita
Teryoshin

With »street, documentary and everyday horror«, describes Nikita Teryoshin what he photographes. For our magazine »WORK«, the Berlin photographer dived into every day work at Schauspiel Köln for several days in spring 2022. Equipped with camera and flash, he protrayed our performers during their work. And surely, we do not want to keep those pictures from you!
Nikita Teryoshin grew up in St. Petersburg and Dortmund and studied photography at the FH Dortmund. His pictures can be seen among others in »Die Zeit«, »SZ Magazin« or »Der Freitag«. In 2020, one of his images was awarded to be the World Press Photo.

A Crossover Project

Depot 1

Based loosely on Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray

Dance & Theatre

In English & German

The desire to be forever young just doesn’t get old. The allure of eternal youth – and the related taboo of aging – are both a promise of the marketing industry and a healthy lifestyle catalyzed and propagated by social media. In 1890, Oscar Wilde put at the heart of his novel THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY a protagonist whose beauty and youthfulness outshine all else. Instead of him, his portrait ages as he indulges in the wild lifestyle of a narcissist: sex, intoxication, drugs, lies, murder. His hedonism has no negative consequences whatsoever. Narcissism has been on everyone’s lips for several years, a buzzword that has come to describe an entire generation perceived as egomaniacal.
