ABOUT
UK and US based Director, Photographer and Artist.
Spanning photography, film, animation, and interactive installations, having a background in Material Design and an MA in Information Experience Design from London’s Royal College Of Art, Em is influenced by surrealist modes of thought and finds inspiration and joy in places and people where the High Brow and the Low Brow coexist. Her visual style is a sensorial combination of soft aesthetics with the witty and hyperreal. Cole's work has been featured in international publications, and exhibited worldwide.
“I love to build tactile, surreal worlds with authentic voices; creating a space for conversation, critique, self expression and fun.”
