Emmie Van Biervliet

Emmie is a mixed media artist whose inspiration comes from journeys, mystical tales and the bizarre sights she has encountered. These may be the crumbling beauty of Cuban buildings, the sensory kaleidoscope of India or the time echoing features of Istanbul. Her work often examines the transitory nature of architecture from its planning and construction to its ruins and its structure revealed. It has been said that a building is ‘a volume of human history, holding within its pages the stories and secrets of generations past and present’. The world the artist creates is one in which buildings both within and without are permeated with the disparate details of the lives of their former inhabitants.

Emmie works with a number of galleries and is represented in London and Internationally by Quantum Gallery in the last year she has shown in New York, Miami, Hong Kong and Singapore. She takes on a variety of commissions and teaching opportunities. For more information please visit:
