Emma Barradell is a multi disciplinary UK based artist, studying Fine Art at DMU, Leicester.

​

Emma's interests come from everyday discarded clothing as a material for creating wall based compositions. Using the clothing to transform from something of a disposable cheapness and familiarity, into something unexpected that in turn becomes worthy of a place on a wall.

 

It is about the found relationship that items have and the connections of colour, size, pattern and texture in each that appeal.

 

Her most recent pieces  resemble painterly collages, with notions of the paint being dripped, large brush strokes, patterns and the way that colour and texture are applied to a surface.​

​

Emma is currently working on a number of community arts based programmes alongside an exhibition at Wot SPACE, Leicester.
