Emily Fox King is a visual artist working in oil paint, sculpture, installation, and printmaking. Much of her work explores notions of femininity, including domestic spaces, and feminized objects. She is currently exploring themes of creation and frustration in abstract floral imagery.
“I think life, motherhood, womanhood, is a mixed bag of beauty, chaos, uncertainty, anger, and resignation, all in one. In the end it’s freaking gorgeousness! That’s what these florals are about.” – Interview with Linda Hoffman Kimball, Co-Editor-In-Chief of Segullah.org
Career highlights include multiple solo exhibitions in her current state of Utah and work in Anthropologie’s Home Collection. Emily has exhibited nationwide including New York, California, Florida, and Nevada and is widely collected, including the Chris and Janae Baird Collection of Contemporary Mormon Art.
