ABOUT
Working between the worlds of art, design, and craft, Cory Emma Siegler’s practice explores the tactility, functionality, and inherent potential of art objects. Engaging in a variety of media, including patchwork quilting, drawing, bookmaking and printmaking, Siegler uses the grid as an underlying structure to create visual networks out of geometry, pattern, and color. Compositions are built out of simple shapes that become complex through the use of repetition, and achieve an overall unity and balance in their final form. Siegler often repurposes worn out clothing, linens, and scraps into her textile pieces, which leads to surprising color and textural combinations, gives the fabric a new life and context, and imbues the final work with a material history and memory.
