Emma Gibbons Biography

Now based in Devon, Emma creates dazzling artworks that balance bold colours with deeper themes of consumerism and excess. Her fascination with colour combinations and how they can spark joy is central to her practice and her aim is simple but powerful: to elevate spirits and leave a lasting impression of fun, energy, and wonder. From resin lollies to glittering pill capsules and framed feel-good slogans, her art is as joyful as it is thought-provoking, leaving a lasting impression on both casual viewers and dedicated collectors.

With her distinctive approach, Emma has attracted a global following, including notable clients such as Zoe Ball, Dawn French, Danny Dyer, Gordon Ramsay and Hollywood superstar Margot Robbie, who purchased her celebrated ‘Bad Barbie’ piece in 2022. Reflecting on this milestone, Emma described it as a career highlight, remarking on the joy of seeing her art resonate with collectors around the world.

“I’m very much guided by my audience – my work is a constant response to what’s hot and what’s not. It’s pop art in the truest sense; art with popular culture at its core.”
