ABLE Voices Ep 42: Emma Maclean
We are inviting disabled artists and arts educators to be guests and guest hosts on ABLE Voices. Today's guest host is Anna Cowley Ford.
Anna Cowley Ford is a post disciplinary artist from rural West Texas. Using her experiences living with chronic health conditions as a touchstone, Anna explores the often bizarre world of living with chronic pain and disabilities. Along with manifesting sensory experiences, her artwork conveys the social and domestic impacts of health conditions on a chronic scale. Ford's practice includes but is not limited to functional and sculptural ceramics, textiles, large scale installations, video, and accumulated medical objects and documents. Today, Anna will be interviewing Emma Maclean.
Emma MacLean is a textile artist living and working in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Emma's quilts combine quilting cottons with second hand materials such as old clothes or bed sheets and often feature handwork through embroidery and hand quilting. She is interested in how textiles can make the invisible visible. Much of her work focuses around pain, time and learning to be soft. She is working on a series called It Only Hurts creating a quilted piece for each word in the McGill Pain Questionnaire.
The ABLE Voices podcast is produced and edited by BIAAE Operations Coordinator, Daniel Martinez del Campo. The introduction music was written by Kai Levin and the ending song was written by Sebastian Batista. Kai and Sebastian are students in the Arts Education Programs at the Berklee Institute for Accessible Arts Education.
