Antrim & Newtownabbey Borough Council is delighted to host an exhibition of work by design and visual artist Lise McGreevey.

Her exhibition Powerful Natures which celebrates the amalgamation of Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Councils will be on display in the Conservatory Gallery, Clotworthy House from Tuesday 15 March – Saturday 23 April 2016.

Powerful Natures, which was inspired by the creation of our new amalgamated  council (Antrim and Newtownabbey) in April last year, is an abstract body of work that takes a fresh, innovative look at the natural and concrete beauty of the two boroughs. The artworks are all designed from original photographs taken on location in both towns and explore the historical and cultural landmarks and beauty of the borough, thus reflecting on the makeup of the districts represented by the council rather than just depicting the hierarchy and establishment of the actual council itself. The title of the collection not only reflects the artworks, but also the joining of the two borough councils into one new stronger entity.

Lise McGreevey is a Belfast based Visual Artist with several years exhibiting experience, including two previous shows at Mossley Mill, who has recently increased her brand and diversified to include producing digital photographic design collections to market as licence to use to fashion and interior design houses.

To reflect the dual nature of her exhibition, Powerful Natures will also be shown at the Flax Gallery, Museum at the Mill , Newtownabbey from 28 April – 28 May 2016.
