Emily Llamazales is an interdisciplinary artist whose work draws from science-fiction and reimagined biology in order to address concerns about our ecological future. She holds a BA in Interdisciplinary Studio Art and Design from the University of Georgia’s Lamar Dodd School of Art (2019), was selected as a finalist for the 2023 Emerging Artist Fellowship by Atlanta Celebrates Photography, awarded a 2022/2023 Emerging Artist Award from the Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs and is a recipient of a 2022 Idea Capital Grant (Atlanta).

Working across sculpture, writing, and time-based media, she weaves together narratives of imaginative world building and speculative evolutionary traits, utilizing a collection of found objects and documentary photography.

Llamazales previously served as the Program and Development Coordinator at Burnaway, a non-profit magazine of contemporary art criticism from the South. Recent exhibitions include Gloom-Bloom, a duo show with Sydney Ewerth at Day & Night Projects (2023), the Working Artist Project Studio Apprentice Group Show, at MOCA GA (2022) and Preface at Echo Contemporary Art in Atlanta (2022).
