Working primarily in sculpture and installation, Emii’s work operates as large-scale realms built in relation to bodies of research which start with archaeology and the natural environments objects are excavated from. Weaving in social memory, oral histories, inherited nostalgia and the details of language, the practice questions the rigidity of Empire, the power of hierarchy and interpolates the static presence of history.
Emii has been supported by Jerwood New Work Fund 2022 and Jerwood Solo Presentations 2020.
