Emily Weiner combines ceramics and oil painting as a way to configure symbols and geometries that have been traditionally used throughout the history of art. She is also interested in how these archetypal images move between the collective unconscious and individual perception. Weiner hand-builds each of her frames, elevating their importance from simple ornamentation to a vital part of the artwork. These structures also further demarcate a space of suspended disbelief, like the proscenium of a stage.
