Emily 林 (Lin) is a Taiwanese-British, Hong Kong-born contemporary artist. Working predominantly in oil and acrylic, Emily creates hypnotic pieces imbued with emotional ambiguity. Her current body of work explores the intricate internal journeys of reconnecting with a more natural iteration of being. She explores themes of spiritual longing and personal mythology. Her subjects exude an enigmatic presence, suspended in the liminal space between conscious and unconscious realms.
