Statement
Emily has a wonderful talent for combining materials and creates beautiful objects that have been inspired by her observations of nature. Her latest work explores new techniques and develops the theme of nests.
"Bringing new techniques to my repertoire has broadened my approach, letting go of the bag form, developing my basket making skills and exploring forms in silver wire has led me in an exciting new direction.
I am fascinated by the contrasts between materials, using a palette of colour and texture i try to describe something that is extremely beautiful, fragile and short lived.
I enjoy the notion that my work could be whisked away from the mantle piece and be taken out to a party. "
