Art is a way of life for Emma Dowd. From an early age she created various forms of artwork using various mediums, but none was as profound to her for her own work than photography.
Dowd has a unique sense of beauty as she finds it in the decrepit places most people see as an eye sore. She finds beauty and stories deep inside urban decay. She searches for a story to tell that’s impacted for viewers by tapping into their senses.
Additionally, Dowd is fascinated by Steam Punk, Gothic culture, Pinup and diverse races that make up this world around us.
She finds inspiration where ever she goes because she keeps her eyes open for things that will make the perfect embellishment for a photo or looks for the story that inspires her to tell it to the world as only he can.
Growing up Dowd found Disney to be a fascinating individual, one of which he mimics her own work ethic after. Like Disney, Dowd believes if you care do dream you can accomplish anything. After reading the biography of Disney, he realized how inspiring she really is and hopes one day, Imagine-Nation Art Studio will be able to produce high quality art and videos that will entertain his followers for years to come.
She’s also inspired by the work of Salvador Dali. She loves his strange and unusual perception of things and how he managed to express it so fluently in his work. Like Disney, you will see a lot of similarities of Dali in her work.
Dowd dares to portray things most people find “macabre”, “depressing” or simply “she didn’t just go there”. She’s not afraid to show the world there is good in the bad if you look to find it. She understands there is a balance necessary to thrive in life of good and evil – but in the end good will always prevail.
Her rise to fame came with her signature piece “Death to Yesterday”. The photo is a vision of the recurring dream she had after one of her best friends death. That picture and its hidden message is so profound it landed her in various news papers and galleries across the world. It also started her famous “Dreams, Nightmares, Fears and Fantasy” collection.
Dowd is passionate about helping stray and abandoned animals especially senior animals find a forever home. She’s also an advocate for MS (Multiple Sclerosis), a disease that she’s suffering from. She is also an advocate for Intersex individuals and rights.
