Her prints offer a critique of entrenched systems and attitudes that contribute to environmental damage, amplifying social and economic inequality in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Created specifically for this exhibition, and in addition to her framed work, Lingscheit hones in on the idea of a natural world out of balance through large-scale relief prints.\u00a0These pieces are designed to yield prints that align edge-to-edge, repeating infinitely and building up to a visually overwhelming abundance that is\u00a0both breathtaking and grotesque. Among the specimen featured in these large-scale prints are oyster mushrooms and a bloom of jellyfish, both of which may\u00a0seem alien to us, but are situated to inherit the earth as we change it.<\/p>\n<p><i>Now More Than Ever<\/i>\u00a0opens on November 2, 2018 and will be on view through December 29, 2018 at The Annex at Spudnik Press, 1821 W. Hubbard Street, Suite 302, Chicago, IL 60622.<\/p>\n<div title=\"Page 1\">\n<p><strong>About the Artist:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/emmylingscheit.com\/\">Emmy Lingscheit<\/a>\u2019s work critically investigates the ambiguities and exchanges between organisms and non-organisms, and that between humans and non-humans. These seemingly rigid categories become increasingly blurry as technological advances take us further into a postnatural domain, and scientific research continues to reveal surprising insights into the world we think we know. Lingscheit\u2019s prints, drawings, and sculptural works explore the myriad ways in which we are enmeshed with the non-human world, from the cellular level to the global economy, and their implications for the ecological and climatic challenges we face.<\/p>\n<p>Lingscheit exhibits her work nationally and internationally, including recent invitational and group exhibitions \u201cNew Prints 2016\/Winter\u201d at the International Print Center New York, NY, \u201cA Curious Bestiary: Chimeras and Cryptozoology from American Printmakers\u201d at Davidson Galleries in Seattle, WA, and \u201cAmerican Lithography in the 21st Century,\u201d at the Lithographic Academy in Tidaholm, Sweden. Recent solo exhibitions include shows at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, the University of Southern Indiana, and the Indianapolis Arts Center. She has held numerous artist residencies, including at Ucross, Brush Creek, Zygote Press, and the John Michael Kohler Arts\/Industry Program. Lingscheit holds a BFA from St. Cloud State University in Minnesota, and an MFA from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Her work is represented by Davidson Galleries of Seattle, WA, and resides in private and public collections, including the collection of the John Michael Kohler Arts Center.
