Built
Primarily on the art of collage, Emanuel's art is woven from a fabric
of tradition, blending both his Eastern, and Western cultural influences.
Emanuel's sense of space and color are unique in their balanced
disorder. Especially in the large-scale abstractions, color strikes
an immediate, emotional chord, delivering sensations that are at
once emphatic and romantic, concrete and metaphysical, post-modern
and baroque. In these paintings, platonic ideals mingle with tangible
objects to create scenes that could be straight from Donne's poetry-always
transferring energy from the physical world into a more spiritual
realm.
