Emily Rose Wright

Emily Wright, a multidisciplinary artist, intricately weaves narratives of self and society through her terracotta vessels and fabric sculptures. Driven by an innate curiosity about the world, she seeks to uncover unexpected connections within familiar symbols.

Emily earned her BFA from Alfred University in 2017 and cultivated her artistry while working as a potter on the East Coast. Her dedication and innovation have been recognized with accolades such as the Best Hand-Built Piece in the 28th Annual Strictly Functional Pottery National and the prestigious Maryland Arts Council Fellowship.
