Bio

Emory Hall is an artist exploring the relationships between myth, health and toxicity. Through bioplastic material studies and welding, process shapes a language of decay. Architectural fragments pertaining to the visualization of time give way towards a vision of escapism amidst a synthetic reality. Stainless steel's ubiquity in cities, kitchens and the home transforms itself into gates, scaffolding and frames to hold slippery forms. The past and present appear gilded, ornamental, decayed and full of contradictions.

Lives and works in Los Angeles (b. 1993 in Kansas City). A recent graduate of CalArts Art and Technology MFA (Valencia, CA.) she has exhibited as a resident of Espace Triphasè (Brussels, BE), a two-person show at rip space (Los Angeles, CA). A former chef at Oxbow School of Art and Artist’s Residency (Saugatuck, MI) her work often incorporates performative dinners and draws from a background of food styling and cooking.
