Landscape painting by four very different artists
We are pleased to announce the latest in our Collins Pop Up Exhibition Series this time featuring work by local artists Marc Medland, Celina Borfiga, Graham Tovey and Sharon Champion. ‘INTERPRETATION’ will take place at Greve de Lecq Barracks on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 July 2025, running from 10am to 5pm on both days. The theme of this exhibition is the interpretation of landscape in painting by four very different artists who are creating new work specifically for this show. It will feature acrylic and oil painting as well as pencil, collage, text and 3D work by mature artists keen to explore new ways of working and self expression.
Following a career in architecture, Marc Medland is now an artist, illustrator and filmmaker. He is currently exploring a freer form of working than the technical work which dominates his portfolio. Celina Borfiga is a prize-winning artist building on her existing, highly successful abstract landscape work.
Graham Tovey has exhibited widely in London, Margate, Canterbury, Cannes, Nice, St Paul de Vence and Jersey. He has had 21 solo shows and several selected group shows. Following a series of strokes, Graham has moved into working in acrylics in a simpler, more abstract way. Sharon Champion is a self taught painter who is keen to take her exciting abstract interior work into the landscape.
The artists said, “Collectively, our styles and methods of working are so very different. It has been exciting to see the work progress as we have encouraged and learnt from each other. There is a lot of experimentation in our new work - we have pushed ourselves into working with new subject matters and with new media. The exhibition is predominantly, but not solely, concerned with our individual interpretations of land and seascapes. We are extremely grateful to Arthouse Jersey and the Pop Up series sponsors, Collins for giving us this opportunity to share our work and we are all very much looking forward to the weekend”.
The Collins Pop Up Exhibition Series is a programme of intimate weekend exhibitions featured across the year. It invites the community to enjoy the work of local artists in ArtHouse Jersey’s unique exhibition space for a short ‘pop up’ time period and provides artists with a professional space to showcase their work.
