Belgium native Ben Goossens spent his working life as an ad agency Art Director.  It was only after retirement that, instead of speaking and curating other peoples work, he found a voice of his own.  He is well known for his Surreal Photography, as far as we can see, a lot of work centres on the big issues that afflict our societies, all around the world.  Goossens finds Clever ways of dealing with problems like, the Economy, a sense of lack of Security, State Surveillance and Prosperity, but also deals with other lighter and soothing themes.  To paraphrase one of Goossens' titles "The World of the Surreal and the Fantastic, are only open to those that allow their minds to be open".
