Cornwall based artist Gemma Lessinger is mesmerized by the sea and her textured artworks are an ode to the wild, powerful and healing properties of time spent by the ocean. Using her textured artworks, her aim is to bring these beach memories to you in your home. Gemma’s aim is to be as sustainable as possible, focusing on re-purposing and up-cycling other peoples waste into her treasure.

 

Creating Waves from Waste

Gemma’s signature in all her work is texture, she turns your beach memories into something you can not only see, but feel in your home. She does this using these two unique elements:

SAND - using sand collected from the exact beach your memory is from. Each location giving different colours and size of grain, creating a completely bespoke look with each piece.

RE-PURPOSED MATERIALS - up-cycling other peoples waste, such as fibreglass offcuts from surfboard manufacturing, to take the texture in her work to another dimension. Her sculptural, 3D works are so tactile that you want to reach out and touch them.

 

Textured wave art you want to reach out and touch
