Biography/Description

Inspired by Victorian intrigue & opulence, old photographs & ancestral memories, Emma creates atmospheric and romantic designs in printed & kiln-fired glass.

Experimenting with unique techniques; layering various materials, the pieces develop ghostly, photographic and textural qualities; blurring the lines between art & artefact.

Insect motifs features regularly in her work, symbolising the obsessive nature of the Victorian ‘collectors extraordinaire’.

Her collection of decoratively functional ‘house jewellery’ evokes bygone days & faded grandeur.

Additional notes

I share my studio with Adam Harvey, a ceramicist and potter. The studio is located in the Old Post Office, just off the main A83 running through Minard. Look out for the A-board just before, or after, the traffic lights. Limited parking outside and extra parking available across the road in the shore parking area, where there are benches and picnic tables.

Open throughout the year, when we are in the studio working. If making a special journey, please call 07796 770686 beforehand.
