Icons permeate society and have done so for centuries. From the Byzantine Madonna and Child to the modern day pop icon, what was once a term reserved for a religious image now also encompasses celebrity culture. But strip away the halo, the rosary and the Giuseppe Zanotti heels does the Icon remain?

Beyond these seemingly specific dimensions, Iconography also allows for the exploration of topics as varied as the power in a name, to the sheer transience of our existence. This diverse range of perceptions and interpretations, boldly explored by the artists, provides an eclectic and youthful reflection of this ageless theme.
