(JERSEY CITY, NJ) — The Art House Gallery is thrilled to showcase “A Hidden Unveiling” by Troy Jones, curated by Andrea McKenna weekends from May 4-26, 2024. Troy Jones’ work offers a compelling exploration of the Black experience. His figures, depicted in relaxed, familiar poses either alone or in company, are shrouded by traditional African masks, prompting contemplation about the identities concealed within.
Troy Jones emerges from a hiatus with renewed vigor, presenting a fresh collection that delves into new realms of color, pattern, and backdrop. Known for using masks to reveal truth, in “Hidden Unveiling” Jones now turns the lens inward, inviting us to witness his own evolution.
Andrea McKenna, Gallery Director at Art House, reflects on Jones’ artistry, noting, “All of the work in ‘Hidden Unveiling’ reflects the artist in one form or another, hiding what once was and patiently awaiting what is to come.”
Born and raised in Jersey City, Troy Jones is a Contemporary Fine artist whose journey reflects the essence of his surroundings. Since earning his Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art from New Jersey City University in 2015, Jones has exhibited his oil paintings extensively, both nationally and internationally. Mentored by the esteemed artist Ben Jones for over 30 years, Troy’s latest series, “Mask,” encapsulates the complexities of the African American experience in contemporary America.
The exhibition will be open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00pm to 4:00pm, with an opening reception on Friday, May 10th, from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. For personalized viewings, appointments can be arranged by contacting gallery@arthouseproductions.org.
