Emily Carew Woodard

Stand: 859
Emily Carew Woodard is a London-based artist and graduate of the University of the Arts London. She has worked across fine art and illustration, collaborating with internationally recognised names including Alexander McQueen, Penguin, Hitachi, The Times, Godiva, and extensively with the Roald Dahl Story Company. Her practice is rooted in storytelling and extends into publishing, where narrative and character are central to her visual world.

Influenced by the lyrical imagination of Arthur Rackham, the dreamlike symbolism of Marc Chagall, the vivid landscapes of Henri Rousseau, and the intricate surrealism of Hieronymus Bosch and Leonora Carrington, Emily creates richly detailed, otherworldly scenes.

Often described as “sophisticated whimsy,” her work evokes a quiet nostalgia—a sense of half-remembered stories, childhood folklore, and imagined histories. Through anthropomorphic characters and symbolic landscapes, she constructs worlds that feel both timeless and gently uncanny, inviting viewers to reconnect with wonder and childhood memories.
