The Newcomb Art Department is pleased to introduce our newest team member, Emery K, Tillman, 3D art shop manager. 

Emery Kate Tillman (they/them), originally from New Orleans, holds a B.A in studio art from College of Charleston and an MFA in studio art from Louisiana State University. They consider themself a material investigator in their studio practice and have a heavy mixed media background with mediums spanning from textiles, glass, wood, metal as well as digital fabrication tools. 

In their practice they explore what queer joy looks like when joy is used as a form of rebellion and power. They play particular interests in interpersonal communications in this community and what the visual language of vulnerability looks like. They have shown throughout the country as well as in Thailand and the Czech Republic. They have a background in making spaces more accessible and look forward to continuing this work at Tulane.
