Emily Kirby - Swimmers

Emily was born into a family of artists in Zambia and those deep African roots continue to have a large impact on her work. For us, it’s her ability to communicate and express raw emotion and movement in her painting that we are constantly in awe of. That and her terrific use of colour.  

Emily has exhibited internationally with shows in cities including London, Lusaka, Dubai and New York. In 2012, Emily was awarded The Chairman’s Ngoma Award for Visual Artist in the Diaspora by the Zambian Arts Council.
