The Story
Size:25 x 30 in.
This 22" x 27" mixed-media artwork titled "Addiction No 5" by Emma Gibbons is an homage to the iconic Chanel No. 5 perfume, reimagined through the lens of contemporary culture and fascination with luxury. The piece is meticulously crafted with resin and hundreds of delicate capsules, forming the shape of the classic Chanel perfume bottle. The capsules, rendered in a palette of shimmering golds and pearlescent whites, evoke a sense of glamour, allure, and the allure of desire, capturing both the elegance and allure of the brand and the concept of indulgence.
Emma’s work often explores themes of beauty, luxury, and the line between desire and obsession. Here, the use of capsules as a medium hints at society's addiction to luxury, status, and appearance. The sparkling materials capture the light, giving the artwork a captivating, jewel-like quality, reminiscent of the timeless allure of Chanel No. 5. "Addiction No 5" is both a celebration of beauty and a commentary on our cultural fixations, making it a thought-provoking and visually stunning addition to any collection.
