Emryn Ingram-Shute’s practice concerns the affective in-between space across artist, object and viewer. She is interested in the found object as a generative medium that sets forth a series of events starting with her encounter with it in its de-valued context. Through desire and meditative reflection she allows the object and herself to undergo a series of transformations that manifest in dismantling and construction. With this, she enquires into how and why, next to the constructed, the found object is so energetically charged? She is particularly interested in how power structures are embedded within objects and how our relationship to materiality is not passive, but rather naturally entangled. Through the distillation of objects in their reconfigurations she aspires to open possibilities for the viewer’s interaction to break down binaries and significations beyond language.
