Inspired by the garden in winter, this series celebrates the often overlooked colours of buds, leaves and stems. In these carefully arranged compositions I explore the concepts of harmony and stillness using the colour and form of common garden plants. I'm interested in how I can use colour theory, working with the natural forms and colours of the plants contrasted against carefully selected painted backgrounds to evoke moments of stillness and calm.

About
Emma TS Robinson is a photographer and artist based in London, UK. Working mainly in the studio she creates still-life photographs, presenting and assembling natural objects and plants, which are carefully arranged and staged for the camera. Her work is inspired by a fascination with the transience of life and the passing of time. The garden and the process of tending the garden, is both a source of inspiration and material, and it features repeatedly in her work. Working in series, she explores how the things which are photographed can be transformed through photography, and their power as metaphors. Through the processes of making, arranging, assembling and ultimately photographing, she believes that something of the individual psyche is invested in the images.
