Emilie Crewe in front of "Graft: Intervals and Burrowed Stories" in the Sullivan Galleries

Emilie Crewe is currently installing her sculptural video piece Graft: Intervals and Burrowed Stories in the Sullivan Galleries. Utilizing close-up shots with a narrow depth of field, Crewe’s sculptural video installation resists full resolution, placing emphasis on the corporeal response of the viewer. In the video, the artist presents an antihero: a hermit or hoarder. The amorphous figure’s unfixed, unidentifiable presence surfaces and retreats from view, within an accumulation of objects. Emilie is showing in Calling Out of Context.
