Emily FLOYD
Australian, born 1972
Solve Your Personal Problems Socially 2024
Offset print on paper, edition of 50
46.0 x 32.0 cm (unframed)
Emily Floyd is critically acclaimed for printmaking, sculpture, and public artworks that often incorporate text-based elements to question how we construct meaning and give productive shape to our relationships and the societies in which we live. Floyd’s works are deceptively playful in their reference to and re-vision of modernist aesthetics and the pedagogical frameworks that structure learning and knowledge. In Solve Your Personal Problems Socially Floyd’s stylised cat is a potent symbol for our interactions with each other, and our relation to the other species and sentient beings with which we share our planet. This marvellously dynamic, uplifting work typifies the ways in which Floyd’s art engages with wide-ranging cultural movements and disciplines including feminism, social activism and community participation, design and typography, literature, and public education.
