Ruth, Adela and Ana are pleased to present an exhibition of photography at the Cafe Grove Gallery by artists exploring some of the deepest and most ingrained aspects of what it is to be human: notions of identity, faith, belonging, taboo and the subconscious. Working in a variety of genres including portraiture, landscape, still life and staged photography, these artists are bound by a desire to illuminate the un-revealed aspects of life.
Photography has long been used as a medium of self-expression, the works in this show raise questions around what it can reveal. Can it be a physical expression of a psychological state, can it contain truth or be a vehicle for self-revelation? The photographers offer you a glimpse into their worlds by exposing their hopes, fears and dreams and by doing so invite you to recognise shimmers of your own life and experiences through the work.
The exhibition showcases new work from exciting emerging photographers alongside photographers who have recently exhibited in venues including the PM Gallery, Liberty’s, Proud Central and the Viewfinder Gallery. The artists have diverse backgrounds, coming from Spain, Bulgaria, Sweden, Albania, Poland and Iran as well as the UK.
Take a look at the website for full details including the private view which we hope you will be able to come along to and examples of work in the show.
