About the Artist
Emily Van Engel is a contemporary artist whose work explores the beauty of everyday moments, often focusing on subjects that evoke quiet reflection. Her approach to still life is rooted in a desire to find calm and clarity in the familiar, drawing inspiration from both modern minimalism and the long tradition of floral art. In Red and white flowers, created in 2015, Van Engel continues this exploration by capturing the fleeting elegance of a simple bouquet, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate subtle contrasts and forms.
The Artwork
Red and white flowers reflects a contemporary interpretation of the still life genre, emphasizing the meditative act of observing nature up close. The piece draws on the historical role of floral imagery as a symbol of abundance and domestic tranquility, but presents it through a modern lens—stripped of excess and focused on the essentials. Van Engel’s work encourages a slower, more attentive gaze, transforming an everyday subject into a moment of quiet celebration and contemplation.
Style & Characteristics
The artwork features an overhead composition, with red and white blossoms arranged in a balanced, circular cluster. The petals are rendered with crisp clarity, while green leaves weave naturally among the flowers, creating a sense of depth and movement. Negative space is used effectively to highlight the rounded forms and to provide visual breathing room. The overall palette is clean and fresh, dominated by reds, whites, and greens, which lend the piece a contemporary and airy feel.

In Interior Design
This floral art print brings a refined touch to living rooms, bedrooms, or dining spaces, especially where a subtle pop of color is desired. The red accents can complement textiles or ceramics, while the white and green tones keep the atmosphere light and harmonious. Its minimalist composition suits modern, Scandinavian, and minimalist interiors, and it can also soften darker rooms with its organic presence. Pair it with red accent prints or selections from the white collection for a cohesive look.
