Emi Miyashita

Born in Japan, Emi Miyashita recently graduated from Central Saint Martins with a degree in Fine Art. She now lives and works in London. Her practice consists of micro scale pencil drawings each framed individually, and arranged within installations. The installations are based on domestic spaces such as an old lady's living room or a corridor in an old house, in order to contextualise the work as documents of explorations in the past. The small-scale drawings represent the strength and fragility of humans at the same time. The main subjects for her practice include the human existence, life and death, the structure of the curious sexualities of the human, and the use of sexual images in a non-sexual way.
