Neil Emmerson MFA Supervisor

Practice Overview

Neil Emmerson's art practice is grounded in printmaking although his prints are typically exhibited as part of an installation layered with meaning. His subject matter is political, both in terms of the critical focus it direct towards aspects of contemporary social and cultural life and through its consistent projection of gay experience into the public realm.
