With Terra Incognita (Unknown Land) – Part II, Al-Tiba9 Gallery continues its exploration of transformation, perception and presence of materials through the works of Andy Storchenegger, Ching-ke Lin, Dal Molin & Milani, Dongbay, and Nicolas Vionnet.
Conceived as a second chapter, the exhibition extends the initial reflection on unknown territories and shifts the focus toward how these spaces are inhabited and reinterpreted.
The works presented develop a dialogue with unstable environments where forms appear altered and material surfaces suggest gradual transformation. Each practice engages with space as something evolving rather than fixed. The landscape becomes perceptual, shaped by subtle interventions and quiet displacements that invite a slower reading of the works.
In this continuation, Terra Incognita unfolds as an open territory where the unfamiliar becomes part of the viewing experience. The exhibition encourages a direct encounter with material and form, allowing meaning to emerge progressively as viewers move through the space.

Al-Tiba9 Gallery
Al-Tiba9 was founded in 2013 by curator Mohamed Benhadj to address contemporary art, performance, and fashion design, and it announced the opening of its art gallery in the historic center of Barcelona on the occasion of its 10th anniversary. The Born neighborhood hosts Al-Tiba9's main headquarters, including a print art magazine focusing on contemporary international artists who engender new visions about possible futures. Mohamed Benhadj's gallery, which operates under Al-Tiba9 Contemporary, is the first international art gallery founded by an Algerian curator in Barcelona.
The space was built by José Fontseré Mestre, a figure of the Catalan modernism, and has 300 m2. Likewise, it is located five minutes from the Picasso Museum, Moco Museum, MEAM European Museum of Modern Art, and El Born CCM. The gallery seeks to be a bridge between the MENA region and Europe, a solid link between the East and the West by offering the world a unique experience of creativity, possibility, and growth like no other around the globe.
