The Portrait Within
‘The Portrait Within’ is The House of Smalls’ second show, and first in House II, featuring 35 UK and international artists.
We all have an outward self/selves, the one(s) that we present to the many worlds we inhabit: external manifestations of life experiences, influences that have surrounded us to this moment, and as a result of choices that we have made. But how do we really view ourselves? This isn’t a true portrait show nor a question of identity but rather about the hidden self.
It is an actual exhibition, in that the artists’ works hang on and stand within the diminutive walls of the gallery.
