About

Emily Pickett

 

I am a mixed media visual artist.

Currently I am using found organic materials such as bones and driftwood in combination with textiles and traditional needlework to explore the recurrence of patterns across the natural world. Combining organic objects with the traditions of needlecraft yields deeply tactile pieces that encourage seeing familiar aspects of nature in a new way.

Prior to discovering my artistic vision, I earned advanced degrees in Theoretical and Experimental Linguistics.

In an earlier life, I was a C programmer.

I currently live in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
