Emily Mannion

Mannion is an Irish artist based in London. She is a 2022 graduate of the Slade School of Art MFA where she was awarded the Felix Slade Scholarship. She creates narrative vignettes culled from personal memory, art history, literature, music and film. They are elusive, imaginative spaces in which the interiority of the mind is imprinted on domestic surroundings.

 

Mannion was also awarded the GIRLPOWER Residency in southwestern France in 2023 and the  Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Grant in 2021. Selected recent exhibitions include: The Queens of Aquitaine, Pi Artworks, London (2023); Homebodies, Unit London, London (2023); Look Mum No Hands 1: Painting at the Crossroads, 9 French Place, London (2023); A Kind Of Human Clothing, Liliya Art Gallery, London; Second Expression, The Split Gallery, London; Why Don’t You Dance? ASC Gallery, London; Snakes on a Picture Plane, UK Mexican Arts Society, London (all 2022); and Castle of Crossed Destinies, Galeria Dínamo, Porto, Portugal (2021).
