Emma Watson Just Revealed the Trippy Painting She Made in New York

Creating visual art is clearly a growing passion for the Brown University alum. “When Prada asked me to be the face of their new fragrance campaign, I asked if I could direct it,” she wrote on an earlier post. “Months later, and I’m able to share the results of the faith they shared in me, with all of you. I can’t wait to share this piece of my art, and hope that you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it…My directorial debut.”

She elaborated on the good timing in an interview with WWD, telling the outlet, “I think it was serendipitous that Prada came to me with this project. It was around the time when I had decided in my heart, and my head, that I wanted to direct something. I found the concept of being a woman who’s a paradox so interesting. Something that really stuck out to me when I was sent the idea for the fragrance was that Prada is about upstream narratives. And I instantly though, Oh my God, that’s me. That’s how I feel. I feel like I’m always running against the current.”
