Art

Step into Emma Pham’s iridescent world and experience a pixelated playground of avatar friends, blooming florals and familiar icons. 

Her work blends kitschy animation with game-inspired aesthetics to tell stories of culture, identity and connection. At Powerhouse Lane 2025, her avatars reflect the spirited, diverse people of Western Sydney, surrounded by native and cultural flowers that symbolise harmony with nature in the heart of a city that’s constantly evolving.
