ArtHouse Jersey Pop Up exhibition next weekend with Max Corbett, Connor Daly, Karina Martine Faria
Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 November 2024 from 10am to 5pm at Greve de Lecq Barracks
We welcome the latest in our Pop Up art exhibition series next weekend, this time featuring a joint show with artists Max Corbett, Connor Daly and Karina Martine Faria. The exhibition will take place at Greve de Lecq Barracks on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 November 2024, running from 10am to 5pm on both days.
Max Corbett specialises in portraiture, and will be showcasing a selection of his latest pieces that blend traditional oil painting techniques with contemporary painting and street photography. The majority of the references for these paintings come from a photography trip to London in early 2024. The collection captures candid moments from urban life, highlighting the eclectic and unpredictable nature of everyday scenes. Each piece creates a unique fusion of mediums that invites viewers to see the ordinary in an extraordinary light.
Max Corbett said, “My goal is to capture raw, candid moments from urban life and transform them into visually compelling, narrative-driven pieces. Each piece invites viewers to see the extraordinary in the everyday. I’m excited for this exhibition as it gives me the chance to share some of these moments, inviting viewers to connect with my work in their own way”.
Connor Daly is a fine art photographer specialising in architecture, still life and landscapes. For this exhibition he will be presenting his powerful series ‘An Empty Bliss’, a surreal exploration of the inner worlds of those living with Dementia through still life. Inspired by over a decade of research and childhood memories, Daly’s pieces evoke deep emotional responses as they explore the fragility of identity: time, people, and the objects that hold meaning in their lives.
Connor Daly said, “I have been interested in Alzheimers for over a decade, and how I could interpret the inner world of those who live with the disease. It took several years of research before I began to make work in the series, starting in 2022 and concluding in 2024. The prints on display will be on sale for a reduced price, with proceeds being donated to Dementia Jersey.”
Karina Martine Faria, a British-Brazilian figurative painter, who has exhibited multiple times in Copenhagen's growing indie art scene alongside Danish rebel art collectives. Her nostalgic ‘movie still’ paintings capture life’s fleeting moments through the lens of 90s film culture. For this show she will be presenting her most recent unseen work of paintings that reflect personal stories, curiosity, and dreams.
Karina Martine Faria said, “I am keen to invite visitors to a new series of paintings that are a testimony to memory love and living through colour. I am looking forward to showing my work for the first time in Jersey and cannot wait to share the experience with the two very talented and fantastic artists that I am working alongside”.
The ArtHouse Jersey Pop Up with Max Corbett, Connor Daly and Karina Martine Faria will take place at Greve de Lecq Barracks on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 November 2024 between 10am and 5pm both days.
