Emily Honderich was born in 1983 in Toronto, Canada. For fifteen years I have been creating media artworks, paintings, and drawings. I’ve recently taken up rug hooking. By experimenting with form and structure, I formalize the coincidental and reveal the conscious composition process behind seemingly random selections of objects. My thought processes are frequently revealed as assemblages such as flowers, still life’s, and handicrafts sewn onto background. I consider artmaking to be a craft that always refers to social reality which relates to these images today. I question the divide between memory and experience. I want to bring the viewer into the stream of the current moment. My works are formal, but they are also poetic. The humans and objects in my work have a natural awkwardness which creates humour and shows an individual’s vulnerabilities. I want the viewer to enjoy and use the art.
