Beyond Face Value

. Had the Trojans payed more attention to the gift the Greeks had left them and not taken it at face value, they might not have paid the heavy price they did. Questioning, investigating, looking deeper is instinctive behaviour, sometimes essential for survival and has many examples in life, love, history and art.

On first sight, the decision can be instant, whether a piece of art is worth a second look, or engaging more of our senses, to dig deeper. Or it can grow on us but we only follow through on to the deeper layers if our interest has been piqued on the surface. A slight variation on an established pattern can be enough to trigger our curiosity...

This transition from superficial appearance to deeper meaning is something personal and individual, that can result in dialog with the artist and with others - or not...

Layers, with hidden meaning, double entendre and symbolism.

We present the works of six artists who exemplify the ambiguity of superficial appearance and profound essence in the same object.

What you see can be what you see.

What you get is not always what you see.

Trojan Horses all the way down…
