Gemma Compton
Gemma Compton is a contemporary artist living and working from Bristol in the UK. She has a First-Class (Hons) degree in fashion design achieved at U.W.E in 2008. She has exhibited her modern memento mori works internationally, from the gallery wall to fashion apparel and large scale murals.

Gemma writes:
'My work always seems to fluctuate between subjects of life and death. I was a passenger in a serious RTA when I was 18. I sustained multiple injuries including breaking my spine and life went on hold for almost a year while I was in recovery. Art and creating became a huge focus for me to deal with what had happened and move forward. Now, over 20 years on I am left with scars and chronic pain but art has become the cornerstone of my life.
My paintings explore the juxtaposition of the strength and fragility of life. I use motifs such as flowers and insects with short life cycles, and I paint a lot of birds, especially small song birds. Such tenacity in a small creature, it’s desire to survive, the fight or flight is fascinating.'

Paul writes:
Gemma is an accomplished contemporary artist, her art is dreamy combining nature and  symbolism in a pop art, street art, surreal art style.
Her art has depth and can contain, almost, hidden subjects, topics figures that are not always obvious at first glance covering such as life and death and everything in between whether that is within murals, oils or sculpture.
Gemma, also, collaborates with CopyRight who is featured in the gallery.
