Assoiffe D'Amour

'This piece was inspired by the power of the female presence. Derived from 'femme fatales' from both film and music, I look to portray characters fuelled with the sexual power, confidence and exuberance of expression," Emma Grzonkowski.

Emma’s work, viewed chronologically, allows us to read the diary of her life. From the childhood moment she first held a pencil through an intensely happy teenage love story to the sudden and tragic loss of her soulmate, the agony of slowly coming to terms with the weight of her loss and - FINALLY - the moment where hope of a brighter future could be transferred onto canvas all unfold like a show reel, so vividly that you become part of her story and involved to the point where it’s impossible to turn away.
