EMMA KERBER

Joining us From: Chicago

On Loom: 2

Tell us about yourself and what led to the Residency?

I am a textile artist and designer in Chicago and work mainly on a floor loom! I went to SAIC, class of 2023, and worked on a jacquard loom towards the end of my time there. I’ve know about Praxis for a while and felt like it was time for me to return to the jacquard and weave pieces I wouldn’t be able to make on my floor loom!

Have you had any previous experience with Digital Weaving or Jacquard?

I do! I took 1 semester with Poppy DeltaDawn at SAIC :)

Any goals for the residency that you would like to share?

My goals for the residency are to get reacquainted with the Tc2 and experiment with material and structure.
