SUMMARY:Pop up exhibition: The Visiting Moon
DESCRIPTION:ArtHouse Jersey is delighted to announce the latest in their Collins Pop Up Exhibition Series with new work by local artists Sapphire De La Haye, Pippa Simpson and Alastair Best.\nThe Collins Pop Up Exhibition Series is a programme of intimate weekend exhibitions featured across the year at ArtHouse Jersey’s HQ at the historic Greve de\nLecq Barracks studios. ‘The Visiting Moon’ will take place on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 September 2025, running from 10am to 5pm on both days.\nSapphire De La Haye is a qualified therapeutic art practitioner with the British Association for Art Therapists, combining her passion for art with mental health advocacy. Her work primarily uses acrylics, oils, and mid glazes to explore the landscapes of the mind, focusing on how meditation fosters presence and visualisation.\nImage by Sapphire De La Haye\n“My creative process is rooted in researching meditation and its benefits, as well as studying Jungian philosophy. I also draw influence from artists such as Kandinsky, Barnett Newman, and Hilma af Klint. These artists, along with other elements, shape my artistic expression and allow me to merge introspection with visual storytelling. Through colour, form, and surreal landscapes, I explore the relationship between the inner world and outward expression. Each work is intended as both a contemplative space and a narrative journey. I am truly grateful to ArtHouse Jersey for the opportunity to share my work alongside other artists in the Collins Pop Up Exhibition series”.\nPippa Simpson uses glass as her canvas to deliver a wonderful translucent 3D world. She uses the medium as inspiration to explore themes of mythical worlds and beasts.\nImage by Pippa Simpson\n“My glass works create imagined worlds inhabited by creatures both mythical and real. My inspiration started long ago with the works of Edward Lear, Lewis Carroll and Arthur Rackham with their imagined realms, together with more modern Picture Books artists such as Catherine Hyde, Alison Jay etc. I find glass is a great medium with both its challenges and its beauty, its translucence and luminosity. I very much look forward to showing my glass works and paintings, together with Sapphire and Alastair for this show in the Collins Pop Up Exhibition series”.\nThe themes of Alastair Best’s work include the Jersey coastline, particularly the low water lunar landscape of our South East coast.\n“I’ve greatly enjoyed working with ArtHouse Jersey on this exhibition. They’ve given us all the help and encouragement we need. Finding a title has been our hardest task. This may explain why we’ve reached for the Moon – it comes in so many differing forms and guises and cycles. In my own case the lunar landscape of our SE coast has been the main inspiration, but there have been other subjects too. I’ve included some studies of Australian gum tree bark – a ready made source of abstract pattern making in nature – and, for good measure, 24 hit-or-miss figure studies. These are in sketch-book format. They might act as a reminder, often ignored, of one of the most important and challenging subjects in Art; what Auden, in his poem Letter to Lord Byron, calls “The Human Clay.”\n\nMain image: Alastair Best.\n
