About The Artwork

This one painting from a series of 3. I was inspired when I was hired as a photographer to take some photos of the therapies for a yoga retreat and while I was looking through my lens, I noticed how this image could be done slightly better to make it even more ambiguous. So I hired the massage therapist for my own photo shoot and took some more photos of just this deep massage position. I then painted it, using this kind of pointillist technique of layering up to 5 layers of paint to build up the facets of the form. I love painting in oils, so the colours are really rich. To be honest, the idea of painting such large hands scared me initially but then I just got on with it and it was like painting anything else. I kept sticking to the tonal values, whilst mixing up a trillion different hues. I like the way the viewer can't tell quite what is happening, that it looks like one thing but isn't actually.

Emma is a London born and educated artist, digital video maker and designer – her artwork straddles stoneware sculpture, cyanotype printing, painting (watercolour, oil and acrylic), illustration, photography, fabric art, animation and vector design. Emma's art is highly personal, her subjects include her friends (animal as well as human), places she’s visited, experiences and things that capture her imagination. Her artwork is uncontrived and free from trying to be anything other than what it is. "At the core of Emma Plunkett's work is the female. Not feminine or politicised. Whether it be a disappearing view of trees into the Spanish horizon, a slithering viscous ceramic or a candid nude. It is always individual and genuine. This we must celebrate”. Gareth Lister - Artist & Curator
