This exhibition titled Everybody Knows This is Nowhere, is comprised of textiles, prints & handmade found objects. Emmy Bright works across drawing, writing, print and performance. She loves paper, wool and the material that Carhartt pants are made of. Across all of these materials, Bright’s work investigates the problem of empathy and the problem of boundaries asking – How do we be there for each other? For ourselves? And where is this “there” we’re all talking about?  She looks to psychology, art history and comedy for help and also uses lots of lists and diagrams. 

Exhibition Open: January 11th- February 1st, 2024
