Emily Honderich (b. 1983, Toronto, Canada) creates media artworks, paintings, photographs, and drawings. By experimenting with aleatoric processes, she formalizes the coincidental and emphasizes the conscious composition process behind random works. Her thought processes are frequently revealed as assemblages.

By parodying mass media, she considers making art a craft executed using clear legal rules that should always refer to social reality.

My work always requires a complete structure, allowing the artist to easily envision their interpretation without being hindered by historical reality. This contests the division between the realm of memory and the kingdom of experience; she brings the viewer into the stream of daily events.

My works are based on formal associations, which open a unique poetic vein. Multilayered images emerge, questioning the fragility and instability of our seemingly inevitable reality through a subtle, minimalist approach, which is limited in time.

My work demonstrates how life extends beyond its subjective limits and challenges the notions we continually reconstruct between the Self and the Other, between ourselves.

Her practice provides a proper set of allegorical tools for maneuvering within a pseudo-minimalist approach in theworld of media art, which works resonate with images made from imagination.

The movements of humans and objects in my work reveal a relationship between motion and sound. By emphasizing aesthetics, she wants the viewer to become an integral part of the art. Art is entertainment: being able to touch the work, as well as interact with the result when appropriate, is essential.
