“The impasto oil works of Emma Copley are so viscous and alive with colour they appear almost unfinished, as if they are constantly in motion. She applies her paint with a thickness rivaling that of Frank Auerbach, and approaches the figure with a skill that has won her comparisons to Alice Neel and even Vincent VanGogh. Her subjects tend to be quiet everyday scenes; a domestic still life from a kitchen window or unremarkable crowds on a beach. With her paintbrush, she explores interior spaces and landscapes in carefully placed daubs of paint, with each mark serving a distinctive purpose in graduated layers.”
