About the Item

EMMA SUMMERTON (*1970, Australia) Barely There, 2023 Archival pigment print on Hahnemühle paper, hand-embellished with ink mounted on Aluminium Dibond with wooden backframe Sheet 91.44 x 65.70 cm (36 x 25.87 in.) Unique Emma Summerton (*1970 Australia) graduated from the National Art School in Sydney, where she studied fine arts majoring in Photography. Summerton moved to London in 1998, where she worked as an assistant to artist Fiona Banner while starting her career as a photographer. Her breakthrough as a professional photographer came with the collaboration with Terry de Havilland in 2004/2005, from which her first solo exhibition, titled Landed at the Christophe Guye Galerie shows from August 29 to November 23 2019 a large selection of the most important works. Since then Summerton has established herself as one of the most talented photographers to emerge in the mid 2000's. Her in-depth technical knowledge coupled with her eye for detail and love for fashion have made her images not only unique but very distinctive, setting her apart from other photographers working in the industry today. Summerton's work revolves around the themes of fashion, love, desire and intimacy. Her Polaroid works are part of a project Summerton started in 1999 as a series of Self Portraits, firstly as visual love letters to her then partner and also in an attempt to re-find her voice with photography. ‘My mother was a dressmaker, and in school, she would make me dresses to wear to dances based on drawings I made,’ she says. Back then, costumes were an access point to unleash Summerton’s imagination. In her ‘Polaroid experiments’, as she calls them, costumes again became a vehicle for her to express her inner life. Summerton’s Editorial Clients include: Italian, British, American, German, Australian, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese Vogue’s, i-D, Self Service, Dazed & Confused, The Last magazine, 10 and Big Magazine. – Emma Summerton, Photography, Fashion, Model, Woman, Light, Colour, Summer, Artwork, Art, Fine Art Photography, Shoes

Undo No.2 - analogue black and white abstract expressionism, limited edition 10
Located in London, GB
'Undo' 2021 The gauzy veil, swept by an unseen force, suggests both concealment and revelation, echoing the duality of identity as something imposed yet inherently fluid. Even though the societal veil remains, its power is diminished—the subject moves freely beyond the constructs seen by constrained minds. Light softly filters through, symbolizing self-discovery and transcendence, a quiet emergence from expectation into pure existence. In this symphony of contrast and motion, identity is no longer bound—it simply is, limitless and free. It is a double exposure film composition. Photograph is a limited edition of 10. Printed on archival Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta paper. Signed both front and back with Certificate of Authenticity. Photograph is shipped fast and flat in secure thick cardboard packaging. Artist Biography: Ugne is a Lithuanian fine art photographer based in London. Her work explores the intricate systems and subtle beauty of nature, finding inspiration in its quiet resilience and ephemeral grace. By capturing small, often-overlooked moments, Ugne transforms natural elements into visual poetry, reflecting on the delicate balance of life.
