Collins are the new sponsors of the now titled Collins Pop Up Exhibition Series for 2025 and 2026. The series is a well renowned programme of intimate weekend exhibitions featured across the year at ArtHouse Jersey’s HQ at the historic Greve de Lecq Barracks studios. There are six pop ups taking place in 2025.

The Collins Pop Up Exhibition Series invites the community to enjoy the work of local artists in ArtHouse Jersey’s unique exhibition space for a short ‘pop up’ time period. The series is designed to showcase emerging local talent as well as new art styles from experienced artists. The series has been a resounding success since its inception in 2020, presenting the work of dozens of painters, printmakers, sculptors, ceramicists and photographers. The programme provides artists with a professional space to showcase their work while offering the public an opportunity to meet practising artists in person and learn more about their craft.

NEXT COLLINS POP UP EXHIBITION…

Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 of March, 10am to 5pm with artists Shân Murton and Liz Adams

Shân Murton completed a degree in graphic design and has worked for a number of design agencies in the UK. Since moving to Jersey, she has come to appreciate the beauty of nature and the construction, complexity and uniqueness of plants, flowers and insects. After having a number of X-rays, Shan became fascinated by images of the 'inner me', which inspired her to produce photographs of plant life in a similar manner, showing their make-up, their inner beauty and delicacy in detail. 

Liz Adams studied languages at university and then worked in the youth justice system before beginning painting in her late forties. She mainly paints in acrylics, incorporating elements of collage to create texture and movement. Her work is abstract, aiming to express an emotional response to the world around her.
