Emily Chamberlain
Artist Statement
I strive to create a sense of energy within my work by utilizing an over stimulated yet focused surface. My exploration through form, function, whimsy, and playfulness has been driving my decisions. Each piece becomes a new opportunity for exploration as I experiment with multiple surface techniques and layering of color patterns and texture. I hope that my viewer is invited to explore, touch, and experience.
