Emily Crookshank attended The Glasgow School of Art from 2007 to 2011 and currently operates from her printmaking studio in Pitlochry, Scotland. Emily's artworks span various media, including charcoal, hand built ceramic sculptures and deeply textured works on paper through the use of traditional printmaking techniques. Emily’s abstract works on paper often evoke the essence of landscapes and natural forms, using strong tonal contrasts and dynamic compositions to capture the emotional and sensory experiences associated with a mountain environment. Her work invites viewers to engage with the visual language of nature, encouraging a thoughtful, personal interpretation of the organic and the abstract. Emily has been strongly influenced by Nan Shepherd’s "The Living Mountain"; a lyrical meditation on the Scottish Highlands where Shepherd intricately describes the landscape's physicality and its impact on the human spirit. Shepherd's prose are rich with sensory detail, inviting readers to immerse themselves in the sights, sounds, and textures of the mountain. The textural marks of Emily’s works on paper present landscapes within the very surface. They invite the viewer to look more closely and, perhaps, to feel more deeply, the beauty and complexity of the natural world and our place within it. Over the last 13 years, Emily has been invited to showcase her artwork in numerous reputable exhibitions across the UK and undertaken various private commissions, including a recent series of charcoal drawings for Forestry England. Emily is currently Artist in Residence and Co-Curator at The Perthshire Gallery in Pitlochry.
