On entering Botanical Body Bliss by Hadassah Emmerich, you are first ensnared by her arresting, prismatic mural. At 15-meters-wide, these vibrant, foreign forms take on an overwhelming and monumental quality. Amongst them, you will encounter Emmerich’s intimate series of collages – created using pieces of vinyl. Emmerich has developed her material process over many years – unique in how she repurposes vinyl flooring and cuts it into stencils. These stencils are then painted and used to print on canvas or walls. This creative process generates cycles between works. As shapes and patterns recur in new compositions and contexts, each work begins to speak to or of another. Emmerich likes to identify with this interplay of forms and colors because of her culturally diverse background. Her mixed heritage of Dutch, Indonesian, Chinese, and German is a key point of departure in her artistic practice.
