Emily Maguire

Emily Maguire's flowers are voluptuous, vibrant, spilling off canvases in a wild array of colour, texture and movement. Used as 'grounding components', they are a constant in her work, articulating a deep connection to nature, a representation of femininity and a link to the safe nostalgia of childhood, the comfort of memory and feelings of continuity. The floral imagery also acts as a means of articulating the unsayable, vivid emotions involved in the process of coming into womanhood, a blossoming, flourishing rush. The forceful, swirling brush strokes and lush fleshy tones recall the works of Georgia O'Keefe. Shapes present themselves, forms appear, before they are subsumed back into abstraction, where we see oranges, the small, tight bud of a white rose, vague shapes that could be faces. These are emotional, expressive works that embody the keen yearning of young womanhood and the big emotions engendered by memory.
