Emma Talbot. In the End, the Beginning

About

In her paintings, drawings, sculptures, and installations, the British artist Emma Talbot (* 1969 in Stourbridge, lives in London and Italy) explores existential questions. For the 20-metre-high Kesselhaus at the KINDL, she is developing a site-specific installation consisting of paintings on silk, sculptural ensembles, and hanging objects, in which archaic voices are brought back to life: Furies, sirens, oracles, witches, and spirits warn of the environmental and political disasters of our present. They tell a story of toxicity and healing and point to alternatives that make a positive future conceivable.
