Inspired by botanical illustrations of the 19th century, her work features oil painted florals over a background of hand-carved block print patterns, generating a tactile push-pull between meticulous repetition and expressive brushwork. This visual tension directly mirrors McQueen’s decades navigating life as a wheelchair user with a permanent disability, where she finds profound beauty in the coexistence of opposing forces: fragile and fierce, mundane and remarkable, subtle and bold. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JKR Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68345240813803,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0577\/3790\/4291\/files\/ConditionedtoThrive-EmilyMcQueen.jpg?v=1793821110","url":"https:\/\/jkr-gallery.myshopify.com\/products\/emily-mcqueen-conditioned-to-thrive","provider":"JKR Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
