Emma Bass

New Zealand artist Emma Bass creates luminous floral photographs that bridge fine art, nature, and wellbeing. Influenced by the Dutch Golden Age still-life tradition and informed by her background in nursing, her work invites viewers to pause, reflect, and experience beauty as a meaningful form of care. Featured in Create! Magazine's 10th Anniversary Book, Bass shares how her practice has evolved through international collaborations, healthcare installations, and an ongoing exploration of art's restorative potential.
