Emma Childs was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland and received her BFA in Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art. She uses eloquent shapes and thoughtful pops of color to create objects that physically interact with their environment. Through her minimalist approach, Childs transforms experiences and emotions into simplified form, color, and geometric edges. The results are eye-catching compositions, which tell complicated and interconnected narratives in an accessible way. Emma childs’s paintings are layered depictions of existence in the worlds we build around ourselves.
In this current body of work, Emma Childs has been developing a language of painting that allows her to explore the way we exist in the world we build around us. Childs’ work explores moments of chaos and mundanity, freedom and containment, isolation and contact. She is interested in the ability of a work to evoke an energetically emotional response from the viewer as well as creating objects that physically interact with their environment, to walk a line between creating something self-contained as well as reaching outward.
Vinnie Hager is a multidisciplinary artist from Baltimore, Maryland. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts in General Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2021. Hager builds systems of bold patterns and repeating symbols that span physical and digital mediums. His works encompass drawings, paintings, new technologies, and mixed-media surfaces in a fluid, instinctive burst. His creations mimic the sprawl of online life, touching upon identity, memory, connection.
Teri Henderson is a curator, writer, and the Arts and Culture Editor for the Baltimore Beat, deeply committed to fostering community and creating critical dialogue around contemporary art. Her work is centered on showcasing talent, particularly within Black contemporary art and the medium of collage.
