Emma Hogarth
Emma Hogarth is an interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in Providence, RI. She holds an MFA in Digital + Media from RISD and a Bachelor of Visual Arts, first class honors, Painting from Sydney College of the Arts (SCA).
After graduating from SCA, Hogarth moved to New York City where her artistic path took a detour through an extended study of dance and performance. Drawing on a deeply interdisciplinary background, her practice engages performance, drawing, glass, video and installation work, often combining media or placing it in dialogue in the installation space. Recent projects involve processes of translation between “traditional” and “new” imaging technologies, investigating each media’s inherent relationship to documentation, time and memory.
Hogarth’s projects have been presented in the space of the gallery, the theater and the urban public arena locally and internationally.
Courses
Fall 2023 Courses
FOUND 1003-25
STUDIO: DESIGN
SECTION DESCRIPTION
Studio: Design promotes multidisciplinary studio experimentation across an array of media and processes. Students explore the organization of visual and other sensory elements in order to understand perceptual attributes and the production of meaning. Using various methods of expression, students may create objects, spaces, and experiences that demonstrate their analysis of composition, color, narrative, motion, systems, and cultural signification. Assignments allow for inquiries into scientific, social, cultural, historical, philosophical, technological, and political topics. Critical and experimental utilization of design principles, which underpin all of the arts, are emphasized. Students are guided through progressive investigations, in which the act of seeing is amplified by the study of physiological and cognitive factors that generate perception. Examined subjects are taken through stages of representation, abstraction, and/or symbolic interpretation to reveal essential communicative properties.
Enrollment is limited to first-year Undergraduate Students.
