A contemporary artist whose work explores the relationship between light, architecture, and perception within the urban environment. Working in Japan, her practice investigates reflective surfaces, layered structures, and shifting perspectives found within modern city landscapes.

Influenced by Japanese design aesthetics — including kansō (simplicity), ma (the space between), wabi-sabi (quiet imperfection), and iki (refined understated elegance) — her work seeks moments of balance between structure and atmosphere. These ideas resonate with traditions of minimalism and Zen philosophy, where restraint, rhythm and subtle variation invite contemplation.

Through painting, reflective materials and constructed panels, Emma explores how architectural forms, light and shadow interact, allowing colour and surface to shift as the viewer moves around the work. The artworks are intended to create a sense of stillness and quiet awareness, encouraging the viewer to slow down and notice the subtle transitions of light and space.

Emma holds an MSc in Digital Media Design and an MA in Fine Art, and works as an art educator alongside her studio practice.
