'THE GLITTERING QUEEN OF POP ART'
Emma Gibbons is an internationally renowned artist from the South West, UK. Her bright, glittering artwork can be found in homes & galleries across the world. Her clients include Hollywood superstar Margot Robbie, Zoe Ball, Danny Dyer & Dawn French.
Born into a family of Cornish pirates, Emma developed an obsession with treasures & misdemeanours early on in life. Her showstopping artworks are created out of miniature hand-crafted components, often involving precious and curious materials.
Emma's 2023 solo show BARBIECORE, at the 5* ME Hotel on The Stand (London), received widespread critical acclaim and was featured in Hello! magazine, Sky News & Harper's Bazaar.
Her sell-out 2022 solo exhibition POP IT LIKE IT'S HOT (Piccadilly) also received glowing reviews in The Evening Standard, BBC News, Time Out Magazine and The Daily Star.
Before branching out on her own Emma worked for Damien Hirst for a total of 7 years. Working for one of the world’s most successful artists provided her with unparalleled industry knowledge, and a unique set of skills that she uses to create her own highly-collectable artworks.
Emma studied Fine Art & illustration at university, qualifying from Camberwell College of Art (MA), the London College of Printing (BA) and London Guildhall University (Foundation Degree).
She is a regular of The Affordable Art Fair and has been exhibited extensively at the fairs in London, Paris, New York, Hong Kong and Shanghai.
