Emma Cousin (born March 8, 1986 in Yorkshire) is a British artist.
Life and achievements
Cousin grew up in Yorkshire. In 2007 she graduated from the Ruskin School of Fine Art at the University of Oxford. Today Cousin lives and works in London.
Typical for Cousin's oeuvre is a mixture of geometric and figurative elements in a bold colour palette. Her paintings often feature depictions of legs. Her works are regularly on display in different galleries, such as in Transition Gallery[1] and in the House of St Barnabas in London. Her paintings have been shown in various group exhibitions but also in solo shows, the most recent one being Leg Up at Lewisham Arthouse in London.[2]
In 2016 Cousin was Artist-in-residence at Wimbledon College of Arts in South West London.[3] In addition to making art, Cousin teaches at various institutions, including Milton Keynes Arts Centre and Sotheby's Institute of Art, London.
