Emma Yorke

Painting Photography Textiles

Emma's art practice is wide ranging, and encompasses textiles, painting, installation and camera less photography. Emma also often works with found and repurposed materials, as well as site-specific elements of place such as water and light, and is interested in developing a practice that is sustainable, with minimal environmental impact. Her pieces often evolve over a number of years, creating opportunities to explore notions of cyclical time and the effect of memory on the making process. Emma has a particular interest in place-based making and recently completed the MA Arts & Place at Dartington Arts School.

Emma has completed artist residencies at Spitsbergen Arts Centre, Svalbard, aark, Finland, art.earth, Devon, Hauser & Wirth, Somerset and Delfina Foundation, London, and has shown work across London and the South West, including a solo show with Tebbs Contemporary in 2021.
