From the series Roses of the Soul
A series of contemporary images of devotion.This particular painting is part of The Altar of Heavenly Love.
You can view close-up details of altar piece, and inside the drawers here.
At the exhibition opening someone stood in front of a painting and said "when I look at this I feel hope ... if only we could take it back and hang it in the office" ... and I thought – "this is exactly what I was envisioning these works to do – to provide hope and healing in the most mundane of places".
View the exhibition booklet here, which includes the verse that inspired these works and a Q&A with Emily discussing the overarching themes of the series and their connection to well-being.
