"Eastern or Western, flowers are one of the most
universal forms of beauty. ey are tokens of love,
a natural expression of the environment. What's
more, flowers are scientifically proved to improve
both mental and physical well-being. Everywhere
in the world, flowers are cherished in some form."
Emma Bass is an established artist in both the
fields of photography and floral design. Her
flower compositions inspire metaphorical and
narrative interpretations, and her contemporary
photographic compositions have been
shown in leading art galleries both
in New Zealand and internationally.

around the world.
Bass is the only New Zealand artist
invited to exhibit at the prestigious
"Summer Exhibition" at the Royal
Academy of Arts in London. She seeks
to cultivate a sense of hope, sometimes
despite difficult circumstances. In this
respect, her work addresses a psychic
human need for the uplifting power of
beauty. is connects with her earliest
career as a nurse, in which she sought
to heal and comfort, and she is proud
that her work has been acquired by
and gifted to hospitals, hospices and
funeral homes.
Following a successful career in
editorial photography, Bass is now

which are available as limited-
edition artworks that are purchased
worldwide. She continues to
experiment with media, including
paint, light boxes, animations, puzzles
and umbrellas (brollies). She is also
constantly exploring new conceptual
terrain and motifs.
