Emma Hartman

Wetterling Gallery is pleased to present Springs, the first solo exhibition by Emma Hartman at the gallery.

In this new body of work, Emma Hartman expands her visual language with intensified hues and a heightened expressive presence. As the title suggests, Springs becomes a source of emotional intensity and introspective inner landscapes. Through soft gradients and luminous layers, Emma Hartman creates atmospheric compositions in which colour itself emerges as both subject and sensation.

Guided by an intuitive approach to colour and a deep engagement with the painterly process, Emma Hartman´s works convey a contemplative and evocative quality.
