Emergers: Emily Motto & John Robertson

Sculptor Emily Motto and painter John Robertson began developing works alongside each other in a shared studio in the British School at Rome in August 2024. Since then they have seen their formal languages naturally intertwine: shapes folding into one another, gestures tracing shared paths, rhythms echoing from one work to the next. The resulting works reflect this quiet collaboration, sculptural paintings and painterly sculptures that oscillate between flat and spatial encounters.

We are hosting a Finissage this Sunday 19th October 12-2pm, to celebrate the last day. We'd love for you to join us!
