A small gold pipe with silver rings at either end is T-intersected by a short, silver pipe with a bulbus peach-colored resin sculpture attached at the end. Existing primarily as sculpture, objects and jewelry, Emily Culver’s work explores notions of intimacy, non-functionality, gender and identity through corporeal qualities. Through these works she considers how interactions among objects are interpreted, translated, and mutated by negotiations with the body and anthropocentric tendencies.
