For Them, 2025

Fresh tulips, unfired and bisqued ceramic, steel shelving, plastic tubing, aquarium pump and basin (not pictured)

For Them is a self-contained water system sculpture that asks the question, what does springtime feel like after a winter off loss? As water slowly drips from perforated tubing, it completely degrades some vases while others remain intact, just wetter. Inspired by the work of Azza El Siddique, Emma reflects not just on the losses of both her grandmothers and mother, but on all loss that seems to linger even when the weather clears up.

I Wear Your Skirt All The Time, 2024

Steel, aluminum, plastic, thread

This is a steel sculpture that features a suspended plastic bowl and plastic plaque, featuring a poem engraved with a sewing needle. Water is poured every 10 minutes into the suspended bowl and drips onto the plaque, slowly obscuring the message.

I Wear Your Skirt All The Time tells the story of fading loss, touching on the subject’s career as a fashion designer.

Feminine Relic 1, 2025

Plaster and hydro-cal on crochet, steel armature

This sculpture explores the frustrations and setbacks currently challenging American feminism, responding to the current political rhetoric surrounding women in 2025. The artist asks the questions, if we keep going like this, what will we lose? Further, what will go extinct?

Feminine Relic 1 descends the sci-fi rabbit hole of a world without women at all. What relics will be left behind?

Experimenting with alginate casting of lace and crochet patterns, Feminine Relic 1 both immortalizes and paralyses traditionally feminine craft.

Handcuffs, 2024

Wood

A pair of fully functioning handcuffs, roughly 4 feet long and large enough to fit around a person’s neck, made entirely of wood. Complete with a skeleton key.

Untitled Brainrot Experiments 1-3, 2024

Spandex, wool, lace, wood, nail polish

These Untitled Brainrot Experiments (1 through 3, respectively) were created in October of 2024. They consist of fabric and other materials stretched over wooden frames, questioning and challenging everything the artist finds uncomfortable about the meme content she sees while scrolling on the internet—male-centered, completely immaterial, and lacking texture.

These experiments feature embroidery of obscure meme references such as “Saddam Hussein’s Hiding Spot”, post-ironic cat memes, as well as a quote from Baron Trump said to one of her friends on campus: “Bro’s got no Rizz.”
