Artistic Duo To Stage Joint Exhibition in Portballintrae Next Weekend

Husband and wife duo Adrian Margey and Evana Bjourson will stage their annual joint Summer Exhibition and Sale of Work at Portballintrae Village Hall next weekend (from Friday 1st - Sunday 3rd August).

Visitors should expect to see Margey’s dynamic portrayals of Northern Ireland’s landscape and landmarks, especially his bold, colourful depictions of the North Coast that have brought his work to prominence. In addition, visitors will also enjoy his more impressionistic works that adopt a naturalistic colour palette and employ hand and finger-painting techniques.

Bjourson’s stunning work offers a gentler, more contemplative view of the North Coast: waves in motion, the light over Portstewart Strand, quiet human moments among sweeping views. Her figurative work reflects thoughts on the reason for and role of humanity while her dynamic wave paintings offer a sense of coastal grace.

“We’ve both been inspired by the natural beauty and shifting moods of the Antrim coast and are thrilled to be exhibiting our work side-by-side at Portballintrae Village Hall next weekend,” enthused Bjourson.

“This exhibition is a conversation between our artistic voices—one that draws on shared memories and creative exploration. We hope it resonates with the community and uplifts everyone who visits,” said Margey.

The Exhibition will run Friday 1st August: 11am - 9pm and continues Saturday 2nd August: 11am – 9pm and Sunday 3rd August 11am – 6pm at Portballintrae Village Hall. Admission free – everyone welcome. Free parking is available in front of the Village Hall. Visit www.adrianmargey.com | www.evanabjoursonart.com or telephone 07841593762 for more information.
