Emily Sullivan, based in Wales, UK
In her art practice, Emily predominantly works with her environment, landscape and personal emotions, and garners inspiration from her surroundings, and feelings towards the land which acts as an escape from the mundane tasks of life. Spending the majority of her time in the outdoors, it is where she feels most at home and allows her to gather thoughts and find creative inspiration without interruption.
Her artwork often explores natural formations, our environment, and the paradoxical relationship we have with our land. With the intention of transforming the viewers’ outlook on their surroundings, she examines her own connections with the land and the locations which offer her some solace. Her appreciation for the world's beauty means that she finds great joy in capturing its landscapes.
