Evana is a very talented artist and I’m sure visitors to the show will enjoy how her work contrasts with my own,” enthused Adrian.
Evana’s stunning work incorporates human interaction, seascapes and coastal experiences observed through the lens of transience.
Her figurative work reflects thoughts on the role of humanity while her dynamic wave paintings take inspiration from life on the North Coast.
The artist initially trained as an architect. Her most recent work featured in the exhibition captures cherished buildings on the North Coast, bringing her full circle.
Admission to the exhibition is free.
