Emily, a Bristol-based painter and miniaturist, creates works that draws from personal photography and found imagery. Her practice is grounded in the themes of narrative, archive, and collections, with a particular interest in the repetition of objects and moments. Working on a miniature scale, her art often takes on an object-like quality, echoing her love of collecting and arranging items in a way that invites contemplation.
Her subjects stem from the recurring objects and photographic documentation she captures while walking or cycling slowly through the city. Emily is drawn to beautiful and fleeting moments, from shifting shadows and changing light to quiet, often overlooked details. She has a particular affinity for abandoned chairs, winter trees silhouetted against the sky, and well placed pigeons. Emily's work invites viewers to pause and consider the beauty found in the most ordinary of scenes, offering a delicate, reflective experience.
