Based in Brisbane, Emily is both a contemporary painter and Director of The Third Quarter Gallery. Developing her painting practice primarily through large scale mural work over the last decade, Devers has always been driven to combine the faithful representation of objects and environments through realism, and the subsequent abstraction of these through abstract mark making. She draws direct reference from her surroundings, often using imagery captured on film and collaging these with digital images to highlight the disconnect between actual and representational – experienced and remembered.
