Bee Emmott’s practice focuses on the concepts of space and image and the reinterpretation of the ‘flat’ two dimensional surfaces and displaying them as three dimensional objects. This has been continued with the recent series of works done in collaboration with London architect Tom Gibson under the collective two//fold. These pieces examine ideas of scale, craft and spontaneity.
