Bio
Emma Scully is a professional printmaker with a First-Class BA (Hons) degree in Fine Art
Print from the National College Of Art and Design. Her multi-disciplinary work presents
itself through the mediums of printmaking, sculpture, performance, and textiles. Her work
looks at societal issues through a feminist and imaginative lens; often adopting a
collaborative and socially engaged approach. Heavily influenced by Irish female artists, the
feminist art movement and surrealism, she gravitates towards unusual forms. Sometimes
grotesque, usually surreal, and often hairy. Her recent project 'I Will Serviva', collaborates
with people experiencing homelessness to produce a hand-printed, hand-stitched patchwork
quilt. The work aims to shine a light on the imagination and creativity of those experiencing
homelessness while raising money for The Peter McVerry Trust.
​
Scully is currently employed at the fine art editioning house Stoney Road Press and is a member of the Firestation Artist studios, The graphic print studio and the Clancy Quay Studios.
