About The Artwork

Emma began exhibiting her art photography in 1992 , and has established a strong following with her floral art creations. She was the only New Zealand artist invited to exhibit at 2016’s Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy in London. Building upon the themes of death and impermanence, Emma’s new series 'Embellish' discusses the concept of illusion, its connection to beauty and the integral role this idea plays within society. Glorious arrangements of embellished blooms spill from the necks of magnificent vessels, questioning the nature of beauty and its relationship with authenticity. “I wished to explore how we build facades in our life – how we create them to enhance our beauty or conceal our realities; and whether this in turn compromises our authenticity.” Inspiration was drawn from the Dutch masters who created impossible bouquets … they are embellished themselves as they couldn’t possibly exist within the one season. "I have embraced their techniques and artifice for my own creations". Flowers are the most universal forms of life, death and beauty.

EMMA BASS IS AN ESTABLISHED NEW ZEALAND ARTIST WHOSE PRACTICE CENTRES ON FLOWERS, NATURE AND WELLBEING THROUGH BEAUTY. Bass' floral compositions inspire metaphorical and narrative interpretations, they are regularly exhibited in leading art galleries in New Zealand and internationally and held in private collections throughout the world. Bass is the only New Zealand artist invited to exhibit at the prestigious Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in London both in 2016 and 2022. Bass seeks to cultivate a sense of hope, her work addresses a psychic human need for the uplifting power of beauty. This connects with her earliest career as a nurse in which she sought to heal and comfort. Bass says “Flowers are one of the most universal forms of beauty. They are tokens of love, a natural expression of the environment. Everywhere in the world flowers are cherished in some form. What's more, they are scientifically proven to improve mental health and wellbeing. Flowers have power!”
