Emi Electra is an interdisciplinary artist with an MFA in Film from Vermont College of Fine Arts and a BFA in Sculpture from SUNY Purchase. She makes surreal films that bend the mind with twisted plotlines and explosive imagery, utilizing a signature visual style that is trademarked by unearthly settings constructed by hand. Her work employs a distinctly female gaze which invokes a discussion of trauma, mental illness, and altered states of consciousness. It is occult in the sense that it reveals the unseen, speaking directly to the unconscious via symbol and metaphor, color and sound.
