BODY PAINTINGS

2020 - PRESENT

 Based in a practice of self expression through physicality, Emily creates her Body Paintings by using her limbs, skin, and human form as the paint brushes on her canvas. She paints her body and then transfers the paint from her skin to the paper through improvised movement and embodied emotion and sensation. The practice of creation itself is a meditation, a dance, a releasing, a rewilding, a birthing, and whether it is witnessed or performed in solitude, it is an artistic act unto itself. The BODY PAINTINGS explore the intersection of embodiment and expression and allow what is internal to separate from the artist, to take an external form that can be seen, touched, cherished, or discarded.
