Emily Boyd really wants to achieve; not because of what qualifications she can or can’t place on a piece of paper, but because of what she can paint on to one. It’s a shame that it doesn’t work like that. She paints in her room, alone, listening to what she calls ‘playlists of (questionable) productiveness’, hoping that people will notice the correlation between how many tentacles she includes in her work and the number of hopes and dreams she has. Emily also tries to incorporate what she knows about archival materials and museum practice into her art work.
