How can one reality be understood through another? This question is aimed at the artistic approach of applying a subjective way of seeing to existing aspects of reality and concomitantly, to develop a unique system, which follows its own pathways. It identifies a process of translation, which comprises moments of discontinuity, semantic shifts and omissions, all of which are inherent in the production and appropriation of images. It is an interpretation of found and, to an extent, recalled and projected images, which in turn generate new imaginings and provide a tool to approach, focus and unsettle the aesthetic, social and political realities we encounter everyday.

Resonance or How one reality can be understood through another compiles a selection of works by artists associated with the Jan van Eyck Academy's Fine Art Department during the past seven years. The exhibition includes drawings, photographs, installations, sculptures, videos, films and performance and will be staged at two locations that are aesthetically and conceptually linked through the exhibition architecture.

Project Management: Mique Eggermont ; Exhibition architecture: Milica Topalovic; Graphic design: Katja Gretzinger. The exhibition is initiated by the Jan van Eyck Academy, Maastricht, and realised in cooperation with STUK (December 2, 2006 - January 28, 2007) and Artis (December 4, 2006 - January 28, 2007).
