Biography

Emem Etti (they/she) is a Nigeria-born, Vancouver-raised rug maker and visual artist currently completing a BFA in film production at Concordia University. As a femme growing up in a traditional Nigerian home in Canada, the dichotomy between the two cultures pushed them to pursue storytelling in the form of visual arts as a means of interpreting their experience. Emem strives to create work that challenges the notion of black portrayal, and femme representation, as well as explore the realms of Afrofuturism, surrealism and expanded cinema.
