Emily Kirby
Emily Kirby (b.1981, Mazabuka, Zambia) is a figurative painter living in Hove, Sussex. Emily’s semi abstracted figures are often placed within scenes of nature. Her practice moves between an exploration into colour and form and playful narratives around female connection and intimacy. Having moved to and lived in different countries, including Zambia, Spain, New Zealand and UK her works often elicit a distinct sense of place and environment in which her subjects dwell. Emily’s work exhibits connectiveness and sensitive appreciation of people and places she knows well, and frequently returns to in her work.
