Protect me from what I know is a group exhibition featuring the work of Jill Westwood, Sohrab Hura, and Adam Lewis Jacob. The project is shaped by the fluidity of meaning and how images, gestures, and positions shift through time.


In a moment defined by political unreality, imposed narratives, and environmental crisis, meaning is not fixed but accumulated, circulated, and often imposed. The works in this exhibition blur authorship and intention, proposing alternative ways of thinking, acting, and seeing that examine how desire and agency are shaped within wider, often unseen forces.


This exhibition marks the first presentation in Scotland of works by Jill Westwood and Sohrab Hura, organised by Adam Lewis Jacob.


Operating without a fixed location, G.G.’s responds to the conditions shaping artist-led activity today by creating temporary platforms for exhibitions, screenings, and gatherings. In parallel to the exhibition, G.G's will programme a series of events, including a film screening at EXIT Glasgow.
