In an interview with Ann Tsang, owner of publishing company, The Antithesis Collective, Ferreira states that whilst she believes education to be invaluable, she considers travelling as "the best form of education a person can have."〔 Moreover, Ferreira credits her journey as a traveller as the "force behind () creativity and the visions that inspire her work."〔 Ferreira has been living in Los Angeles since 1998. She received formal training at Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, Otis College of Art and Design and studied photography at Santa Monica College. It was this course in photography that sparked Ferreira's interest in the medium once more. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emma Ferreira」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
