Artist Bio

Emma Connelly is a collage and hand-sewn mending artist currently based in Portland, OR. Their work is a reflection on the relationships held with the objects and detritus of our lives. Emma is concerned with nodes at the closest personal level of use and possession, as well connections that extend further, between maker, material, and history. Emma’s interest in the ways people are linked to each other is mirrored by their curiosity about how they fit into the world.
