Welcome to my, Jessica Emmett’s, official portfolio of work.

I am a freelance Visual & Community Artist. I originally started life as an artist in Manchester from 2001 until relocating to North Oxfordshire in 2008. I often work with digital media including photography and video. Through my [Adoption Art] I explore my own experiences of being a transracial adoptee.

Since 2008 I have focused on working with the adoption [Community] doing talks, workshops & projects while working on more general [Design & Freelance] work including design, illustration, photographic & website design work.

I was born in Hong Kong and adopted by a British expat couple that were living there at the time. My birth mother was a Vietnamese refugee boat person who fled to Hong Kong after the Vietnam War. I grow up in Hong Kong until I was 16yrs old before moving to North Yorkshire, UK with my (adopted) family. Find out more about [My Adoption Story].

I hope that you enjoy the work that I have shared with you, please do not hesitate to [Contact] me.
