Description
Emily Young's carved works from the 1980s to the present are presented in a thoughtful survey by Jon Wood, placing her sculpture within its resonant contexts, both art historical and cultural. This exploration draws attention to the richness of her sculptural imagination and the issues that charge it, including ecology, environmentalism, poetry, and philosophy.
The inclusion of Young's early paintings also highlights her long-standing preoccupation with narrative, as well as her original way of thinking, seeing, and feeling. The relationship between her sculpture and the material life of things is skillfully presented, enriching our understanding of this important contemporary figure.
