Emily Simpson is an artist and curator. Their work looks at love, lols and loss; explored through
textiles, writing, zines, events, print-making and curation. The work often questions how
experiences (of loss, life, language) are shaped by the non-binary perspective and the political
implications of this. Emily often works between arts and education. They founded a gallery in
York whilst Artist in Residence at Bootham School, which was programmed in conversation with
students. Here, they curated several exhibitions such as ‘i miss u said the lol cats’, exploring
felines in relation to feminism, the internet and identity. Emily is currently working on a series of
collaborative projects with Chris Alton regarding grief and language. This has taken the shape of
posters, events, a recipe book (commissioned by A Modest Show) and recently a billboard
(commissioned by Bloc Projects). Emily lives in Manchester, with their partner and cat named
Tofu.
