Hello!
MY NAME IS EMILY
I am a multidisciplinary artist working in fiber, sculpture, illustration, and design. While in depth exploration of mediums is rewarding, I prefer to choose whatever materials and techniques feel best suited to bring my concepts to life. I make art in the service of a few different values and quests.
I possess a burning curiosity about just how far theories of harmonious color and pattern combinations can be pushed. My woven tapestries are an expression of this as well as my fascination with the tension of trying to maintain equilibrium in an ever changing world. By avoiding complete comfort and total chaos, I trust more deeply that I will be able to find my footing when I need it.
Having experienced deep pain, I remember vividly the natural and human created art that made me feel as though I had a small space to breathe when my eye rested on it. My dearest hope for my work is that it gives the viewer the space to take a breath and keep going and the memory that they did. I hope to inspire and remind people of their own resilience.
