Emilie O’Brien
Emilie O’Brien is a Montreal-based artist. Through slow and often improvisational processes she creates text works, paintings, sculptures and video work. Her projects respond to and often meditate upon fragmentation and the multi-faceted whole, with an emphasis on connection, or disconnection, of these parts. Her mapwork Field Notes is a quizzical, meditative exploration on a well-loved piece of terrain vague in the Mile End quarter of Montreal, known both as Maguire Meadows and Les Champs des Possibles.
