2-TIMES • Art
Emily Mae Smith,
‘Feast of Totems’
@ CFA Berlin
—
“Subversive
riffs on art history,
injecting defiant
language, design,
and science fiction
elements into
classic settings.”
Born:
1979 – Austin, Texas.
Based:
Brookyln, NY.
‘Feast of Totems’:
Is Emily's first solo
with CFA, presenting
a series of paintings
and drawings that
occupy and distort art
historical compositions,
claiming space for
feminine subjectivity.
“At once humorous
and critical, Smith’s
meticulously rendered
tableaux present
a feast of codes,
signs, and symbols.
2-TIMES' highlights:
· Sweat Equity (2018)
