Tate - A Brief Guide to Egyptian Surrealism

One of Tate’s most popular videos in 2022 with 135K views.

  • "Gemma brought the politics and poetry of the Egyptian Surrealists to life through a thrillingly creative and varied approach, making one of Tate's most popular videos in 2022. She was a great collaborator, sharing inspiring ideas and concepts, and always offering creative solutions when obstacles came our way. Looking forward to working with Gemma on more projects in the future!"

    Scott Morris - Senior Producer at Tate

  • "She brings her personal creative style, talent, and skills to create work that is resonant, impactful and people focused. I look forward to the opportunity to work with Gemma again and would recommend others to do the same."

    Bethan Touhig-Gamble - Director of Span Arts

  • “Gemma has worked with National Theatre Wales across a number of projects, developing consistently beautiful animated artwork.  Her creativity is exceptional and her generosity of spirit in terms of collaboration and co-creation means that she is a joy to work with.   We are always blown away by the work she creates for us and cannot recommend her highly enough.  We are already looking forward to our next collaboration with her!”
